never has the sky looked down
and declared that today,
dreamers must find new sights to see;
that birds must find
new places to be.
never has the sky decided
that a million wires
are enough lines to cut across
its silken expanses,
he always makes room for more -
neatly dividing spaces
that everyone is allowed to
dream in.
and so you ask me,
why the wires to cut in
to his beauty?
and i'll say,
it's because he knows exactly
how they carry words to him,
which may otherwise
never be said again.
