there was a cool and damp electric hum
i heard outside my ear
and in the sky, hung high above my mind,
a pulsing breathing thing
in quick repetition and in pace with the sounds
of an uncharacteristically chilled evening
i could see the stars as they were
i could see myself as i am
and the world was right
but only in that moment.
i turned away, but for a blink,
and the earth had turned, hiding away,
our moment shared in time
