There’s a Crack in the Sky

There’s a crack in the sky

Where blue butterflies land

A dome of wings and wind

Churning boulders to sand

 

There’s a crack in the earth

Where mammoth millipedes surge

Each giant foot forms

A fresh mountain or gorge

 

There’s a crack in my mind

Because though I know that rain comes from dolphins

Caught in a viscous net of rainbows inked with jellyfish wishes

And pebbles are leftover teeth from the bees

That pollinate sharks that pollinate trees

 

I cannot remember the purpose of these

 

Hands

Stuck to arms and a torso

The head that falls limp

The eyes even more so
