Fragments of time
Through our veins
the blood of stars
from which all warmth
from which all passion
from which all life
from which all love
her hand within mine
is universe touching
universe
flesh upon flesh
feeding upon
eternal energies
these words
are star script
temporal equations
of eternal expression
the earth populated
with fragments of time
that burn to coalesce
to embody a single soul
Orpheus descends
through her open eyes
into the heart
of her love
John Lyons
