I followed the spirals of the galaxy through the mirror of
your eyes-
a flight amongst the stars,
past the cold mountains of yesterday
pockmarked with the gashes and scars of their
trials,
floating in solidity and alone in a mass of
collective silence-
I drifted to the origin,
the rupture that began with a tremble,
the tremble that rumbled to a tremor,
the tremor that roared across the black
like a brush coated with a pigment as
red as the blush on your lips-
I flew to a fracture of the first second
and was blinded by the absence of time,
the absence of sound,
and the smallness of the moment encapsulated
within a grain of mystery-
I soared the spirals of the galaxy
within the comfort of your eyes,
a flight amongst the stars
and among the stone sentinels,
through to the origin and weaved
within the first breath-
I wondered what was beyond the wall*

    Amazing poetry that eerily describes and captivates the imagery I saw in a dream I had around 2005. My dream was about me travelling through the galaxy through the mirror of another’s eyes-Body less and without form, only eyes, mine and that of another, travelling through the great abyss of the Galaxy. Yet I was Somehow aware that I was merely a sphere of consciousness with eyes mirror reflecting my own. Travelling at the speed of light, but in this sphere there was an absence of time, the absence of sound and the comfort of the others eyes. Thank you for writing and sharing this, I struggled to describe and put my experience, what I saw into words and you did it beautifully.
