A Tad Solitaire

 

‘Myriad lights, sublime

on dark canvas:

Graceful, assured,

bold

in celestial dance;

 

A tad solitaire

I flicker –

deep

in this candid cast 

and spin

with less than I am –

a spot

on her naked aggression;

the cold lust

of finite stars

that care not

where heavens light

may dawn and dance,

or set
