Your Constellation

Trapped In Abstract

The universe shattered

at the sight of my breaking

Trapped in abstract,

Tremors linger in aching

Finding a way back

Lost in the process of making

The stars witness a crack

In my moment of awakening

*

Seen by the master,

Broken by the beast,

The taste that comes after

A glorious feast

Dusted for prints,

Recreated my knowing

Took my common sense

Left my innocence showing

*

Reading the signs

Chasing your constellations

A likeness of minds

Addicted to the sensations

What more will we find

Depends on our transformation

Keep an eye on the sky

And your hearts observations

    Broken, not stirred. Blonde. Janes Blonde. But who am I? Only the stars will tell--once upon a shattering. Yeah, I have no idea what I mean, either. But I like your poem.
