Above the clouds
the raven circles
below
the world turns
us down
to a fleeting kiss
of ground
in capricious wind’s riddle –
How to unstick gravity?
Pull up!
Pull up!
Maximum speed
unbraking hearts arrested
by clarity
a stark reality
in the whispering
of slow-motion minds –
Are we unstuck?
And the raven hovers
and the world turns
and fear takes flight
Why?
Do I not care or
like others before
deny it’s the end
of my world turning?
Then the raven flies south
on flouncing wind
to drown brown lands
And so
we land
on a world
turning
without end
