Beneath the Stone
when the sky
was blue
it was a wing
that lifted me
off
way away
and i saw myself
from a great distance
radiating
like a diamond
dripping in the sea
that changes form
depending on the direction
of the light
too many diamonds
drown
i can see that
now
they fell
when no one
was around
the ink well
spilled
and made a mess
all over blue
it was as if
there was no day
no new day
all brand new
the pitch had
become
the day and the night
a clock that stopped
ticking
but way away
far from fear
the sky was blue
the clouds a puffy white
the wind a whisper
like a melody
and there i slept
for all my days
and all my nights
playing in the rain
walls of rain
that kept me safe
and sound
I still open the door
when it rains
so I can hear it better
and feel it
f
a
l
l
to the ground
deep down
into the ground
the dark cold
hard ground
where the sky
is always blue
and the sea
the endless sea
shimmers in the light
weightless diamonds
floating up
blinking and winking
like a star
on Christmas
