Across the wide world
into just such a moment
where, eyes closed
(to better become imaginary):
music, almost from within.
The heart sings
sightless, clinging
over such careful distance,
a spinning much faster than it seems;
a perpetual curving constant.
The infinite glittering stars
shared only eventually.
This symphony of words
through which dream and time,
wish and memory,
so gently becomes
a slow and unconscious
overture of rain.
In quiet defiance
of the same common sense
which tells you the earth is flat.
