The Ice Of Darkness

Kiss the stars
with breath of ice
icicles forming on the wind
and light filters through
and touches the soul
and heart
and mind
and sets it aflame
with crystals
of frozen
water
dancing on the edge
of the universe
shimmering
in the black hole
of the milky way
sailing around the moon
who sailed over the moon
with the spoon?
I did
I did
I did
Ice flashing past the moon
stars
and melting as it speeds
toward the sun
fracturing along the way
melting
into a puddle
of water
in the space
of time
and distance
Out there
the puddle slows
and collides with the sun
putting it out
and sending our world
into darkness
and plunging it
into the silence
of another world
Out out, brief candle
as one poet might say
Out out, brief world
I might say
It started with ice
and melted into
the end
