a smaller axis

​

I’m deep in earth listening

for whispers of a bygone era
Drawing forth missing melodies

lodged in silent stones
Rotating round a smaller axis
Feeling the weight of all that’s grown

​

Blue light streams from all directions
Midnight stars they plot the scene
Mending holes in broken baskets
That carried seeds of budding dreams

​

I’m still and silent in this breathing
A magnet for the mineral that is me
Oceans swell, the discordant’s felled
In this – my harmonic reverie.
