jazz in her smile.


the universe broke open an
arrangement, a melody that sings
to the stars every night

and leaves us begging

lay our bodies down
and lift us up in our
nakedness.

but she,
left me bleeding
with progressive rhythm
and subtle taste of
her intergalactic lips

to die.

i heard the melody that night
for the very first time.

Speck of dirt


who are we?
but a speck of dirt
in this universe.

believe me when
i tell you this.

breathing in the secrets
of galaxies and daydreams,
your eyes
resemble the constellations
lighting up the space.

but tonight,
you look a little
more beautiful than ever.

i don’t know
why.

aren’t we all
but a speck of dirt
in this universe?
