a cloudless sky

[eyealtering]

i am flawless like a cloudless sky.

and my arms stretch like trees
reaching for the light and my
trunk is strong, roots embraced in
nurturing soil

and words have meaning like a heart
that knows how to open itself to love;

i am unafraid of the fixed mirror for
the ocean speaks my name in kindred sighs.

and a kiss is a stretch of land
we till to create a lasting home

if i could sing your name it would
be like bird seeking mate in a cloudless sky.
