sky shocked night
terrific lashes
turning bright
the nails in the coffin of the blue
trembling
each one of us appointed
like idle children choosing teams
our regalia
only ordinary hats and shoes
shining
the bruised curl of midnight
extravagant
eternal
rubbing against your teeth
no mast will turn with us
we turn the horizon with our feet
