047: Homecoming

Between cotton walls of grey

caravans trail and trod along

a flat earth nailed to paper skies,

marked with kurgans of giants,

mantled by glitters of cold,

decelerating just a bit

to usher in an age of questions.

Within sublime frequencies,

the movement never ceases

and shaking teeth keep grinding

with consummate dendrites

for the invisible door,

sat one step beyond

the mating point of sea and sun.

Striving to net parhelions,

our roots are touching rock,

with every dawn and every war,

yet we'll hold fast, like blades of grass,

each crashing wave,

each footprint laid

in swiftest sands the wind won't name.
