227

arafura

firmament brave

down dangling

cloudcapped

and a sea for azure

the names I could drop

of those who've not been!

begin with the bard

and go back

once you're up it's all taken for granted

in heaven as it is on earth

merino combed, frizzled, flung

all goes without saying

feathered to edge

day's ending out there

just about halfway home

ambiguous as that may be

between of days

begin the blur

catch the orange

last of rays

cast golden shadows

for the sea

you'd think time fixed them for a queue

we ourselves are in procession

half a million of us in heaven right now

best as I can google

many of course won't look out the window

stay glued to a smaller screen

it's all of it stray punctuation

patterned, yes

but the show is of moments

so we see no two the same

an invitation to blink,

believe

red ending as in ember's glow

suggesting morning ash

has to be

kicked alive

now darkening

fishing boats point the sea

like a starry sky

and the crocodile cloud snaps up out of nowhere

no one and nothing keeps up with this world

the eye takes all in in slow motion of course
