The ocean turned her back
and the silver flecks flew
into your mouth and your wrath
fell from the trees and was devoured.
This was a miracle.
You laughed and the open star closed
and the twittering sky shut her blind eye
and you left us all, saying,
"I have nowhere to be except heaven."
This was a miracle.
This was the road we all followed
twisting through the lips sublime,
the road we all knew, the memory we sung,
we sung the field of killing the past,
giggling and kissing and murmuring and hushing ourselves.
Bleeding from the future we touched face to hand,
hand to face, and felt sad, and felt glorious, and drew breath.
