Markings on the Wall
Astronomical charts
Born under a moonless sky
Cosmos ignited the pyre.
Daddy said it was so hot
Earth could’ve been on fire.
Funny how we let
Ghosts of childhood
Hideout in bedroom closets.
Instagram photos record our
Joyride. Tinder
Kindles our relationships.
Linger longer, look at the mars
Moon before
Night rolls to dawn.
Oxygen in our blood.
Purple galaxies and meteorites: our thirst.
Revolving on this planet
Synchronicity brings us
Together in one
Universe tilting this
Vex of harmony.
Weekend warrior extracting
Xenon from the night sky
Your lantern is fueled by yellow
Zinnia flowers.
