Kit Kelen #521 - in a blue stretch

521
in a blue stretch

in a blue stretch
known as day
under cloud
and into grey

hoof after human hoof
we go
in hot pursuit
or in the know

gods gather in
each woolly head
by night
and dreamt up
straight in bed

how dark!
and still
it's all stars shine

some will be yours
and some are mine

until their light collects us

we are so far from beginning
but now – do you hear? –
birds are singing

it's time for us
to join in too

under cloud
and into grey
in a blue stretch
we'll call day

so nice to meet
with you
