Existential starlight
As the night
Bows in twilight
Soot of a black air
Is slowly swept away
Through the
Snoqualmie Pass
Over Teneriffe’s teeth
And North Bend valley peaks
Embers of Sol
Burn Ellensberg’s soul
As the visible spectrum
Scorches the grass
Into Yakima Valley
This twisting path
And the sun rises
Wiping the cold
Cool darkness
From your skin
As purple becomes pink
Hot reds melt nightish blues
And the warmth rises
Like wings to tomorrow
Day has been broken
One thought on “Cutis Anserina”
