Feeling The Pressure

The flawless lands on saturn
through the order of the
eight established planets
have for eons now
sanctioned the creation
and changed climates in their entirety
with the rise in diamond rainfall

Days That Have No Anchor

Though we have explored

Step forward,

and bathe in the light of the sun.

As she blesses our love

and ignites our skins and soul.

In this bittersweet moment, 

tinged sour by all that could have been,
