Close Our Eyes On Three

glass shifts
           shards splinter
sands of time
         sharp obsidian

Anubis' scythe cuts as it falls
laceration piercing
a hole torn
           in the fabric ...

the tunnel is a bridge

separated by space
obscured by time



                                                                      fold existence
                                                                      compose melodious wavelengths
                                                                      pleated-accordion rhythms
                                                                      beat me a lunar tattoo
                                                                      sound me a path
                                                                      pebble it with the unseen quantum
                                                                                           dream stuff

                                                            the sandman has always slept among the stars


give up your maze-making
your stellar trail blazing
the universe is spinning
                           stop

feel for my hand
it is there even if the touch is not

we will close our eyes on three

                                                     one … two …

Lovely poem!
It reminds me to focus on the moment and let go of the thoughts that distract from feeling Love and Peace in this moment.
🙏 Thank you!

Gorgeous!

Thank you, Denise:)

I don’t know how helpful it is, but I resteemed it too.

Thanks, Denise. I appreciate that. The waters are quiet today:)

for me, as a reader, the layout felt as the universe folding in over itself; the poet guiding the reader through the referenced tear in the fabrics of time and space and navigating us through the beauty of the conscious universe, unconsciously.

I love the ceremony here. The one; the two;

Thank you, carmalain. That was somewhat the approach I took with this write. Much appreciate the visit:)
