van Gogh stares into the distance
the trees darken into piercing towers
the moon is the color of a smile
the night whirls with his thoughts
the houses lie
beyond reality's reach
I stare into the distance
within arm's reach
but not wthin the will's
the inkwell's darkness folds into itself
as often as the stars collapse
until its point pierces an eye
that is no longer there
