Electric Blue

just here
in my restless imagination
i see the entire world differently
like it was just born
vast and wild

i see fires
i feel the skin of my ideas
 colors are in between us

i see him when i see myself
our story looks the same
i kneel before this wonderful pain
honoring my feelings
i surrender

 up into the rafters of baked clouds
i ascend
into this like a fool
i drift
into the poets smoke
 my hands parted before my lips
 my words in their marbles
spinning in place
my pen is loaded

this dream
why not
faceless and slow
why not

i am dizzy
smiling in a riddle of us
new meanings
theses are new days

whatever this is holds me to my pen
 sort of hidden
sort of obvious
it's right to enjoy this


nothing early
nothing late
