you dazzle me. In my dream
we are calm and close.
I buy you a dress - you flash
your eyes - a thousand feelings.

pencils and sharks - ivory
ornaments - fossils

revision razor
bathe my eyes in vinegar
i need to focus

rain forest - the sea -
Oort cloud - Antares - and time -

the vault of the sky
time/space speckled with jewels
firmament patterns

in the deep dark - blue
Neptune the ice giant - long
seasons as Earth turns

why do I love you
the scorpion and the frog
my only answer
