Through The Stars

My previous post consisted of work that Miriam Dunn had added to this, the original piece:

Drifting and weaving

through the swirling constellation

of stars forever plunging

out of the dark still silence.

The only sound

the steady throbbing

of the heart of the beast

as she slides forever forward.

Slowly, surely, steadily

picking a path through

the myriad of mayhem

seeking out the final destination.

The last port of call

in a journey through

the open spaces of the

empty, quiet, still void.

And the beast pushes on

through the bitter silence

of stars colliding in harmony

before my eyes.

Stars part and in the

emptiness crisp shapes form,

slowly silhouetting against

the backdrop of daybreak.
