Alien Despair

star’s light
burns.

so you look down
and nuzzle the earth.

such grand ethereality
shall not stain and mar your filthy wonder.

earthbound and grounded,
you seek your element.
so
be elemental.
so,
be simple.

the new
beauty,
is
basic.

or,
perhaps….
By Grace,
and By Love,
you have missed your calling:

pigs don’t fly,
but you ain’t no pig.

i mourn
the loss of your wings.
i mourn
the loss of your flame.

please come back up
and wipe my tears away.
