FOR BTS

LOVEFIELD

 

Take us to the sky!

 

A stage raises you, that fragment of

God spinning like the Sun,

like the Cosmos you praise and sing,

circling into a violet spell,

a poem of forever birth.

 

I feel Time breathe in my bones and

notes flutter like stars

beneath my skin.

 

Purple’s roots are blood;

its arms reach into the blue – aether,

arc of water, abode of air,

all that merges into your pulsing

crimson loam to spark

string, air and drum into life.

 

Take us through the sky!

 

Piano chords tremble like hunger;

I cannot tell if your fingers

drip sweat or tears, only that you make

peace your own by giving of it,

by whirling out of accord

with the storm.

 

Brokenness rhythmised calls to wholeness.

Eyes join hearts.

Rhymes bind schisms.

Phrases gather sound in ears, trailing silver

through deserts, seas, years.

 

Feet of stardust leave footprints of gold

across a celestial lovefield.
