We cut our ties and flew inside the arcs
And curves of white blue skies
And slipping off our shadow selves
Uncurling, newborn, rose and fell
Light moving through the air
Beyond the boundaries of bones and flesh
Naked as an empty day and cool as raven night
The storms we caused to be
On those swelling, dancing, clawing tides
Were set in motion by our deep
And formless words alive with heat
Sanguine and silent now
And moving on to who knows where
Lying languid in each others arms
We glimpse of life beyond ourselves
Spirit-like, Ariel
Naked as an empty day and cool as raven night
