Twinkle, Twinkle

Gleaming diamonds that dot the skies
Peering through the night with trillions of eyes
Behind crescent smiles, you wink a distant threat 
Oh, faceless gaze, how I wonder what you're looking at

You come with shrouds that cloak our sun
As hellfire burn behind the black you've spun
You weave the constellations like gossamer webs
While in wide-eyed wonder, we meander

Flowers Rain Shadows

                               flowers
                       

Thought of the day

softened attention plots the flight of grace ~
flowing in from above, through pores in space

Women's Dream

Almost asleep, 
almost awake, 
she floats 
where walls 
melt like 
sugar in rain.

Her breath 
becomes wind, 
her skin 
becomes sky, 
her heart 
becomes 
all the hearts 
that ever beat.

In this
soft place 
between yes and no, 
between here and there, 
she grows 
larger than 
any name 
they gave her.

She dreams 
herself wide 
as the world, 
endless

SERENDIPITY

[Verse 1]
Love comes and love runs
As I go another time around the sun

[Verse 2]
Love someone, then let them go
The less you care, the more you know
As I go another time around the sun

[Bridge]
If you know love, you hold it tight
The imposter’s always chasing lights
And I go another time around the sun

[Verse 3]
I said no thanks

Planets

The rings of Saturn are empty.
They smell burning.
Moons which circle planets which are otherworldly.
We forget about them, sometimes.

Venus is catching on fire. 
Mercury is always being silly. 
Neptune is worried. 
Moons laughing about being moons. 

The rings of Saturn are tilted weirdly. 
No one says anything. 
I bet it smells like coffee. 
Somewhere in space.

In the silence of a dying star, I wandered through the cold and empty space

In the silence of a dying star, I wandered through the cold and empty space,
I, a dimmed light, falling into nothingness, seeking meaning among the shadows,
Until her cosmic pull caught me, called me with her silent voice,
I began to burn with new flames, melting into her mysterious light.
Each second that brought us closer made me

nude

from top to bottom, like a
root,
she stretched across the entire 
canvas,

eyes, petals, closed 
                  ~ arms ~ melting ~ beewax ~ liquid ~ imitating
water ~ 


            

I Left No Trace, In Empty Space

Three days ago, I was buried on 
the ground as it seems!
A cascade of issues as the days go by.
The unrelenting sorrows and pain---
Weak, broken, desolation it brings!

I seized the world with open hands,
optimism, smile, love as much as could.
Full of hope, peace and wisdom.
Still joy would vanish out of sight.

I left no trace in

Skylight

Stars in the night I see
Scenery so sightly
Some are twinkling brightly
Small ones showing lightly
Staring at them nightly
Structure holds some tightly
Softly they delight me

Star Woman The 8th Star

I am a reincarnated goddess avatar of love and light.
I will no longer be afraid to continue to fight
For the life I deserve, to live life is my sacred rite.

Wormhole Wonderland

She followed a rabbit
stitched from stardust,
leaping between planets
like lily pads of light.

A comet brushed her cheek
a whisper,
a secret,
a scent of home long gone.

Her dress,
woven from constellations,
twirled in zero gravity,
threads unraveling into galaxies.

The wormhole found her.
Not a door,
but a pulse,
a soft tear in the silence. She stepped in.

Light bent like memory.
Time folded into origami.
She became
a thought,
a

Down the rabbit hole

In Wonderland's twilight, where shadows play,
Alice chased a rabbit, down a curious way.
The hole yawned wide, a vortex in the ground,
She tumbled in, and her world spun around.

Down, down she fell, through swirling lights,
A kaleidoscope of colors, a wondrous sight.
The air was thick with whispers, a gentle hum,
As she pierced the veil, and entered the

At the Point of Inflection

In the beginning
there was a shapeless void.
With no axis, no curve, no trace of motion—
Just, the stillness of a dark blank space,
echoing the hollow absence of intent.

A point appeared, a tiny taut singularity.
A black pirouette spiraling in the void—
Potential perhaps, but not quite enough
to suggest that something could follow,
beyond a pinprick of stars
