Unshook

I saw you stand up

You are a mountain

You are an eagle

You are this pen

I saw in your eyes

the world, they spoke to me

of “forever”

the time that passes

through one’s pupils 

and into another

I saw the vastness of 

the black universe spill

into someone’s coffee cup

and they drank, and You

You stood there, a rock 

unmoved. It was as powerful 

as this moment

UnShook.
