Circular water
too near the edge of the falls
the promise to drown

Godspeed is lightspeed
we see until we are blind
not invisible

Holding fast they plunge
in momentary freefall
defying the crush

We are dark matter
more of us than meets the eye
feel our gravity

Two plummet headfirst
upturned soles to God’s heaven
the tickle of love

Ripped seams in space-time
blessed beings emerge headfirst
the dead prefer breach

Plumes of graceful froth
envelop twin beating hearts
up until the sere

Nothing left to burn
suns die everyday out here
to leave voids of love
