Passing Boon

Passing Boon

Flirt with me,
Hurt with me,
Tell me lies,
Be pert with me.
Share my cries,
Wear my cries,
Toy with me,
Swell my eyes.
Writhe till noon,
Be my moon,
Glistening,
With satin boon,
Spend the night,
Grasping tight,
In ecstasy,
Till breaking light.

Asteroid

Asteroid

We did not die alone,
Underneath a sky that shone,
With stars and streaks,
And mountain peaks,
Stellar gases and comet speak.
When the hurdling rock,
Brought with it the shock,
Sent waves that fried,
All inhabitants inside,
Who scattered and died.
Their bits torn asunder,
With the asteroid's thunder,
Sent flying into space,
The entire human race,
To find a new place.
Last night, we died together,
On Venus as a feather,
Scattered on Saturn's rings,
Across Titan's ridges, raining,
Into Io's waters, sinking.
When all memory was erased,
With the sun's giant red face,
Warming our distant graves,
Tinkering with the bits we gave,
To the new worlds not yet brave.
When together we again grew,
From the bits the meteor threw,
A thousand years before,
To the dusty martian shore,
To try again once more.
A blessing that we should die,
To give it one more try,
Perhaps in other dreams,
Under distant solar beams,
In secluded planetary streams.
