Intersteller dust everywhere
though no costodian within telescope site
stars form, collapse under the bed,
taking a sock into black hole amnesia

Dreams shake a cosmic snow globe
comets, planets, candle flames, float
flowing in deep purple ink, almost void black
with spiral apparisions, smashing like goats

At night, last, the moon stopped, full
waking a pillow tossed restlessness
freying like edges of quantum memory foam
trying to fall back into slumber and endlessness

Long-ago-galaxies send photon lullabys
folded in the bedding of space/time
bending around massive editor's eye
serve as balm, a sleeping Brahman's rhyme
