Photograph: mine
During the bleakest hour of my
Tenebrous immurement
A riven marionette in yin pose
The moment came of oracular dissolution
Rising up above my physical form
Floating past the Ferris wheel
I was bound to
Through our solar system and beyond our galaxy
To complete stillness
Severed from all time, space, and self
Indigo absence of all sensation
Absolute peace
Finally felt for the first time
Returning to myself, eyes clear
Rivulets of tears during my transcendental journey
Had washed away a bitter blindfold
Of my own making
I hope death’s moment
Is the same journey
To a new galaxy
Full of stars
