A Poem For Jen

[dollybrigade]

Every light you see in my eyes is a million miles away


You’re only viewing the afterglow of hydrogen happiness

Burnt out in a cosmic burst

A gunshot between the cochlea

Before Brown’s felling blow

Could you remember hope?

Crystaline globules orbiting your head

Free from black hole cacophony?

The poles of logic and dichotomy

Split you apart

Freeing asteroid belt vertebrae

Milky play plasma filling in the gap

Take me home, winged planet

Cast me from tireless rotation

Ready to meet the sun
