When you fly
Across oceans
Do you know where you are?
This goes out too all
Is this what you thought of?
Did you think of the mountains
And the people
There in
Did you think of your footprint
And it's pattern
Therein
?
~
The day was orange
The word is yellow
Out like a light switch
Teeth a steady glow

The projectile's
Crisscross trajectory
Is no kindness

In the catacombs of this mine
Watch it leak
Watch it settle

What remains is
Subterranea, urania
Built to last
A moment to inhale
Before fade to black

~
patient, optimistic travelers
gliding soundlessly along
moving walkways while sun falls
across gleaming surfaces
of aluminum, glass and peace
~
Enter the lair

Of a cloudless grenadine

Misty branches of sun

On the outer marker

And in their place

A strawberry moon

~
Rings of Headrick
Stabilize the flight
Of a broken equal

In zero atmosphere
I record you remembering to smile
Pixel pleasure
Whether or not
In zip ties

Cloud on the brow
Rain in the ashtray
Storms we all breathe in heavily

An end to camaraderie
By critical distance
By counting back from ten

Zero is an even number
When discord is no longer odd
A quiet
young woman
in a library
reading books
with diagrams
of bomb shelters
and *** positions

She's thinking
of her future

The feeling of needing someone before you even knew they existed,
It's a crazy thought to think.
But baby, when this happened, it’s like the sky opened up,
And you appeared within a blink.
I could have known you sooner; I know I would have loved you then.
But baby, now that I truly know, I can look back to where my sight of you began.
You're the eyes that I get lost in; I could stare at you for days.
I'm enticed by all your actions; I'm in love with all your ways.
You make my days seem brighter with just a simple "hey baby" or "sweetheart."
It’s like this love I share with you is a masterpiece of art.
The beautiful connection of our hearts and souls combined,
I'm so glad that you were destined for me at the most perfect place in time.

Not all rivers
end up in the ocean–
doesn't make their journey
less worthy.

Not all love
ends up in a lover's arms–
doesn't make it any less
worthy.
