the universe is old

the photograph is not so old
as the universe

we stand in a circle, holding hands,
atop a mountain, at night

the photo of our circle
is a blue circle icon

as the wind barks at us
turns us to sand to blow

when the morning comes
we'll be standing smiling at the sun

the photograph will the be placed on a shelf
among other articulations of fate's finger

brilliant, hollow, yellowing
as we turn to dust and disembark

perhaps we will arrive, in the end
