Brilliant, the inward joy
The sharp intake of breath
Held, in silence, alone
My empty arms cradling my shoulders
In this pause out of time:
An ocean of knife-bitten stars,
ancient beyond comprehension
Shards of shattered glass flung in dusty cascades
Wide across the darkness, wheeling
in stately cadence, the heartbeat of Earth
I take it all in
And do not share it.
MINE, they cry. MINE ALONE.
Inspiration withheld,
I am whole.
The sharp intake of breath
Held, in silence, alone
My empty arms cradling my shoulders
In this pause out of time:
An ocean of knife-bitten stars,
ancient beyond comprehension
Shards of shattered glass flung in dusty cascades
Wide across the darkness, wheeling
in stately cadence, the heartbeat of Earth
I take it all in
And do not share it.
MINE, they cry. MINE ALONE.
Inspiration withheld,
I am whole.
