the blue

blue

running through

across around underneath the grave i dug

with wind and breath and spacious earth

blue

ribbons of light catching

on your bangles, charms, bracelet earrings eyes

deep as the sky on the night we met

just blue

streaking lightyears away across the sky

we knew each other once,

didn't we

unburdened and hidden in dreamland

whispers

spiderweb nightmares and honeysuckle hands

blue

for what it isn't
