the constellation

the constellation
of hope and despair is densely
distributed – one

small tug undoes narratives
and countless mythologies

stillness divulges

movement –
a constellation of
reference points
made and unmade

** in the absence of The Daily Post from WordPress, here’s your daily prompt: movement

recognizing only a splinter

recognizing only a splinter
of a fragment of how
the observable
universe works, i am stuck
wondering if somewhere,
in the constellation
hydra, someone has
looked out her window
for the last time, a witness
to the collision, ouroboros

morning flight, homebound,

morning flight, homebound,
yesterday’s memories spread wings,
day’s constellations

you are the

(for mom on her birthday)

you are the
counterweight
to constellations,
bending the
universe
so that we may
reach the fruit

we make our way

we make our way
into the morning
in the manner of
stars filling in
the night sky –
in degrees,
subconsciously
evaluating the
distance between
one another for
structural integrity,
holding it in
holding it together

crowding

crowding
on the fire
escape, so
cold,
those stars
with no constellation
to call home

it takes a constellation

it takes a constellation
of solid whole
notes and a meteor
shower of
sixteenth notes,
unrushed,
to engage the vital
organs, swing
open the hatch
that might be
solitude if you feel
crowded, company
if you bear seclusion.
it’s no surprise that they
wish to come in –
we are all at once
lonely and social,
yearning to strike
the right chord

something about

something about
you splits my
tongue into
two tongues –
a star’s stars
for the constellation
of your heart

a detour dipped

a detour dipped
in toasted sesame
is a new
constellation
revealed from
the palms of
your hands
