Blink
April 1, 2017 12:00 am Leave your thoughts
When the blink of our eyes
shatters the frame and we thrive
shaking the horizon
Through this statement of pain
blankness glorifies
as we cry silence upon silence
The sand is still
like my words
frozen in the scent of the future
I dare not breathe the lie of belonging
I dare not breathe the sigh for sight
its eye a distant memory
As the square fits into a circle
I bare the disappointment
the misplacement of the rhyme
the ashes in which we fall
The window breaks
its hinges turn and yearn for time anew
a time when difference is spared from scars
a puzzle piece set out in joyful complexity
I stare out at the universe
a pale reflection on the millpond of life
without myself, questioning, pricking the stars
Is there light in these mountains?
one day we will travel without agency
one day there shall be peace
