Spheres Falling Nameless
Our liquid benefactor
I shudder that you love me
Exorbitant and large
Full of eagle and dragon
Pulsing with all of your heaven
Singing every river
And notes full of rivers
I taste this
I taste this
The stars are too vast to contain you
You are some singularity that is exploding toward us
Some kind of extrusive vector
Galaxies in a scarf
Incubating little nebulae
Excavating the soul on a Sunday
We taste this
We taste this
Shall we open?
Open, young and door-less
Old and door-less
Lofty and floor-less
Gravity was for us, but it serves a different chord out there
It’s not cadenced and wilty
No wavelength nor silty
I know this
I know this
We hunger for spaces animals ceased to comprehend
We dare now and dunce
We made a broken echo
In the shape of our empty stomachs
And we groaned
thirsty, in our silt
Convinced we were meant to swallow
Meat
Rotting and tallow
Mouths
Concave and hollow
We begin our crawling ventures to
Nearby planes and surfaces
Bonds and packages
Opening and turning over
Vacuous and fallen under
Dirty and designated to die
But there was depth and substance to the sand
So similar to any structure and its core
Except with the inversions and reversals of enthalpy
Have empathy!
My anatomy
Sustaining a skull
On a cage
In the sand
Scraping my skin with dried clay and roaring with the shrinking into my ribs
Then thunder
Then thunder
Enter the lust of the skies
tears for the earth
Enter collisions
Speckling the sands surrounding my body
Stinging my skin is the rain
Pouring
Stinging my skin is a royalty these lands cried for
But we are remiss to exchange
Shortchanged
We rob the skies
So we drink
Ergo we drink
I taste this
I taste this
And the sky drains herself
Perpetuity that will not let us go
About the Creator

A Glass Receptacle for Luminosity
