Verse

Skipping verses


Jump


Across the galaxy


Skipping stones across


The pond


Splashing waves,


Ripple across your face


Words that sing


From your lips, red


Waves emanate


Softly pushing


Air across


The vacuum


Of space


Silence, gentle, violent, ominous


Waves that spread


Words that sing


From your lips, blue


Kissed by death


The ice that brushes


Your skin


Gently,


Gripping


Your cells, tearing


Membrane, skin


Ending, you


You, you


You, deep down


Into abyss,


Strange, the verse


The multiverse


Multiple verses


Skipping across


The pond, the lake


Ripples in water


Still


Kiss,


Blue lips

Red lips


Reality


Fractures.
