I close my eyes and the sun goes out Hold a breath and all of the creatures fall dead Cover my ears and the universe goes silent Not a water drop Not a heartbeat Not a sound from a songbird in any of the 4 corners I swallow the stars until they burn like coals through my eyes My outline glows against the night sky like an eclipse of the sun And sparks follow each of my movements like a shower of meteors I light up the sky with the Aurora Comets appear before dawn He greets us at d**h in that quiet place that is faint in our memories That place that has always been there but we can't quite remember When you cross that bridge to the other world, open the door and step through Step through the stars, swim through the gate Touch the very boundaries of the universe
