No Separation

A thousand stars bore their pinpoint holes
into a centimeter of dark sky.

If that drifting cloud disappeared,
ten thousand more
would pierce through perception.

If we were to shift our sight
just one fingerbreadth away,
a universe might leap into our eyes,

and remain there,
to shine out,
in the brightest of daylights.
