spit, mixed with dirt – muddy words flow
beneath a blanket of stars
I dreamsqueeze full soul-yearn
lift my eyes to the dome
lips quivering, a whispered prayer
heart-vision tugs
pulls the words right from my throat
I-love-you’s like wending ribbons
greens and pinks in starstream
weightless I rise, freedom-firstborn
rain on my cheeks, looking east
I fly and fly and fly
