Azeotropic distillation

in svalbard, i watch the northern lights

a neon bruise on the tiny patch of infinity that 

fizzes endless chaos atoms above my head

 

we’re the ghosts of those who touched us

but if you distil the maelstrom down to its purest form

all that’s left is your heart pumping blood, your brain crackling

and the saliva that passes between our lips when we kiss

You make words 'sing' and thus, the ideas themselves. Glad you're booked for Sale in June.

Welcome back with full arsenal of worde magicke Stu. It all makes wonderful imperfect sense. It was so good that I mentally photographed it and kept the negative. (Old style)

A summary if there ever was one. A clever piece. I enjoyed it. Thanks Keith
