Galaxy

is this

this collision

of we what matters

the earth shudders

shudders again

stars born burst before our naked eyes

planets resurrect

children that once were

run races to their proxy suns

light betrays them

they wither die in the blow dust

of their own creation

is this

this collision of we

the dark galaxy

islands of feelings

that have no

home

Unclearly

crow slow to follow starling

starling following crow stir him

all these wings confuse suddenly converge

bitterness seeps through

dying leaves another burst

of an untidy breeze

there are too many birds

the sky swirls like so many before

clearly he sees there are

no answers here

crow following

crow
