Stargaze

Could we when we find

We take apart?,

Examine until we reign over this empire-

That is Nowhere.

When we take apart,

You steer calmly somehow past

The sluggish mechanics of speech

Through the trapdoor to a dimension with new colours.

Stare into the maddening abyss but pull out, laughing,

Before it looks back.

Could we when we see you

Lend me your exact-fit eyes?,

Swap and stargaze until we discover

Their silent dances and secret patterns,

The diverging and converging and delicious explosions of thought,

We find ourselves Nowhere.

We've been everywhere.
