Off to sleep,
To play among the stars.
For there is work to be done
Within paradise.

Tumultuous blue,
Damning heaven high above.
God’s land is here
And I walk on the face of the great unknown.

A breathing sea,
A girl in the clouds.
Fishing for me,
While eating the stars of yesterday.

Palpitations that strike eardrums,
In and then out;
Rise and fall,
Until the ground has been consumed by mother sea.

Tangy juice,
A dance upon my tongue.
Causes me to fall into the milky way’s arms
And sink below its depths.

A joy long forgotten,
But inhaled in the taste of jasmine.
Hammer and nail,
Strike against each other once more.

Home is now a place far away;
A sea between her and I.
But fret no more, clementine of gold.
Blink away the salt and drink the sweet nectar.
