Pisces (Reprise)

I cruise through saltwater stardust

commune 

with the pale, brooding moon,

wallow in its shimmering wake

and wonder at the unknowable depths 

of longing

 

In thick primordial dreams 

I plumb stygian leagues

and in dark matter 

sunk 

among flickering plasma 

and icy shards

I find you

 

Yang to my yin

my mutable twin 

we were made to breach 

side by side

scales flashing

in crashing briny breakers

spumy with moonlight 

and ozone 

and wildness

 

We are not free

in this lifetime 

to wholly entwine 

and for love of you 

I will make no waves 

 

I will slip 

into myself

in piscine passivity adrift 

abiding

knowing

 

In liquid stillness 

I will thirst
