stars twinkled around me
until i had to notice them
until i had to open my eyes
they breathed across my skin
and planted themselves
deep inside my aching chest
i was filled with their light;
i took the leap upwards-
a journey in the celestial sea
i lost myself in the eyes
of jupiter, venus, and mars
freckling my skin like dice
the constellations drove
in donuts, around the sea
pouring themselves out
space was everything
space was always there
in waves of varying gravity
i rode asteroids into
six different shooting stars
until i held the world
the cosmic microwave
filled me to the brim
with it's premordial sound
