The cosmic river circuits,
Pushing the wisp of welkin ;
Kelvin cold hangs heavy
’Gainst the bottle–green world .
Violet presses against the edges
As millions repeat mundane cycles ;
Quarks belie fictions of safety .
Under the sublunary vault
The attuned know loneliness
In another world .   Cities wake
As blue scatters across the vault,
The rays fan red into another day ;
Beneath the world’s edge
Helios drives his fiery stallions west .

Standing alone in purple nightshade .

Ra sails his fiery bark east
From beneath the world’s arc ;
The rays fan rose into another day
As capri sprinkles across heaven
In another world, cities sleep .
The attuned know loneliness
Under the celestial vault
Quarks build scaffolds of safety
As millions revel in routines ;
Violet presses against the edges
On the cerulean globe—
Kelvin cold hangs heavy
Stretching the skin of sky,
The Oceanus ever circles .
