the wondrous moment in between....

inside your dream
you awaken
to give rise to
timeless
drownings
inside floods of
ancient
glow

in a dance
of warm winds
and dark soft voices

in the center of a
sphere without perimeter
you
then create
flaming rivers
nile songs thick
with ancient honey
its silent refrain exploding
as firefalls spin

your heart beats into existence
the rapture of drunken dreams
the wild meeting of breaths:

the ur-seed of wisdom
the well of light

universes you give birth to
and are born from

October

this buzzing silence

holding its breath - sweet

the arvid murmur of

last skythes

smoke wed to glow

coupling with the

dying sun that perfects

the sleep of clouds

the undevoured light

ebbs to sustenance

in the fissures

of decaying dreams

embering to the lip

of a nomadic sky: earth

from which my voice

escapes

eyes sleep in soil

fruit ripens

in the vacant lots

of solstice

heat recedes

light escapes

through the interval
