day one hundred fifty-nine: 1:58 A.M.

i'm outside
1:58 am
the sky
it sparkles
the night
so clear
the darkness
is invisible
i can see
i can hear
everything breathes
the trees sigh
and i must be crazy
but to see the stars
i lie
on my back
on the frozen ground
so frozen that it sparkles, too
it reflects the sky
like water would
and breathes a ghostly breath
and when i lay
beneath the cold silver stars
i lay atop the cold silver blades
of grass that mimics the sky
and it's alright
to be slightly confused
if i'm human or alien
because i'm neither here
nor there
i'm in limbo
i'm thinking
of where i will be
in the near future
and who will find me
and take me up from this deep sleep
in the silver studded sky
on the silver blades of grass
and let me steal their heart
and keep me
with my silver wrapped finger

day sixty-three: dancing in the dark.

there was a sky
filled with emptiness
and empty of the moon
so the sun filled it up
to the brim
(the emptiness, that is)
with warm honey and love

and there was a sky
filled with sunny love
and empty of the moon
so the sun left
because the sky was not happy
with the sticky sweet honey
and the love that did not mean much
and there was nothing left
but empty

so the moon came
with his smooth light
and livened up the sky
but not with something sticky sweet
with something smooth and cool
something like the feeling
of dancing in the dark.
