Bring it out
naturetimelovemortality
Bring it out
Into the daylight
Where it can be seen
In a little more detail
The bones of it
The working theory
The process of identification.
From the bottom of the sea
It looks impossible
There is a sun out there.
Up above
Where mouth breathers walk
There is a cloudless sky
It is cluttered with stars
Only visible in half light
Nobody knows
What lies behind.
From the bottom
It looks impossible
To reach.
The gold
Shining in the blaze
Of morning
Finds its way
Into my heart,
Your eyes are as blue
As a desert sky
As deep as thought.
It is impossible
To be submerged
When I am
Floating,
Beyond evolution
Unafraid,
Suspended in aspic.
