Magnetic Poetry Kit� #4 (Egg)

sweet void your power is gone
like rain into the lake
like mist in the day's stare

the moon aches away and waxes near
no one truly leaves
death is only an elaborate egg

we were always here after all
behind summer & winter
beneath life's pounding delirious apparatus
a tiny shine in the shadows

nonetheless time does still flood on & on
as it must do
a storm of drunk and panting moments
a delicate gown of a thousand diamond urges
dressing our lives with frantic want

then recall how love shot you from within
her skin produced light
his hair smelled like a symphony
essential places of smooth blue
their soaring chants

watch want stop & go
fall through language and be bare
