The Infrared

"The Infrared" 

Rainbow holds the white like ultra violet speaks white’s dark mind; 
synaesthesia soothes the silence, the infrared shows its fairer self, in time.

(LadyLabyrinth / 2022)

Moon Ascent

@alons, ce sera pour la derniere fois@

Sophie Blanchard 1819

a metaphor of the sea sings no music,
no swell here, to swing the stern;

nor any pressure to float a kite:
there is no 'flight' to the moon,
no wing can carry me.

At the birth of Napoleon's son I lifted
from the Champ de Mars, and from the basket scattered
a shower of papers to proclaim the birth.

clearing steeple and tree top, opening
a passage into airless geometry
where faith is translated to trajectory,
buoyancy, computation;

weight against lift; gravity versus
the pull of elsewhere.

tilt of a wickerwork floor,
creak of a cable; the flake of my dry lips
at travel's very limit: so vast the distance
that if I raised a finger behind it would vanish
the whole blue jewel of the Earth:

fireflies on an evening porch; a curtain sailing
at a summer window;
my mother bending to her linens, the remembrance of a smile
creased in her skin.

I am on the edge of the sky; I feel excellent,
my eyes filed with moonclouds, and the dark seas.
I am beginning to move away.

Sophie Blanchard, Aeronaut (1778 - 1819)

Fairy Tale

In my fairy tale I have to be my own hero,
No one’s gonna rescue me from anything;

The curse put on me by some witch is being alone,
Without anyone to love or love me back;

My closed off tower is Blanchard,
Isolated from the outside world;

The conflict I have is being a teenager in this place,
Having no way out and nowhere to go;

My lady’s in waiting are leaving left and right,
For all their pushing and back-stabbing;

I haven’t come to the good sorcerer yet,
The one that will help me through all the twists;

The noble steed being a ’79 Volvo with over 300,000 miles,
Is the only means of transportation I have;

My glass slippers are leather knee high boots,
Hardly being ballroom attire;

My far off castle is the city,
Where I want to be more than anywhere;

My knight in shining armor I haven’t met yet,
In anything more than a dream anyways;

All that’s left is for my fairly tale to end,
So I can have my happily ever after.
