spaces, voids and places
with no way to name
boundless sensation
no picture to frame
dwell in my deepness
marrow of my soul
rooted in heartwood
parts in umbilical whole
Some radiate heaven
paradise past tell
some mutely suffer
agony like hell
ache like astronaut
clings by eyelash thread
to a mother ship
where the crew is dead
joy like fairy lights
in that in my yard glow
beaming out a hope
where no word can go
as vacuum steals sound
concentric circles fall
collapsing on themselves
in a silent wall
formless thoughts and faces
flit in nightmares dreamed
just when I catch them
they're not what they seemed
Yet they're there and real
deep in secret well
tangentially intangible
no sage can foretell
seen but unspoken
penned in invisible ink
beyond my line of sight
I miss them when I blink
like wee red spiders
or tiny dust mites
you only know he's been
by his painful bites
But for all the bad
that falls on deaf ears
much voiceless delight
my spirit still hears
with bone deep reverb
sound without volume
too low for sonar
in full body hymn
a void that sat vacant
is filled to the brim
flooding with light
corners that were dim
pulsing each heartbeat
the psyche's EKG
sung in living color
by astral choir in me
Amen.
