Set alight
in an ocean of fragments
held tight between
rope of clouds
kitten cool as ice
watching the shapely fire.

Stunned eyes in an arc
cutting through the horizon.

Flags are painted rags
in the shivering twilight.

Hands that reach through miles of glass
to meet in a storm of orchids
where we are aching water
and the flat sun sails.
