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, 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:)
