Eleven Moons and One Star
I just saw something burn straight through the sky, striking every chord of my heart strings, carving cracks into my skull. I asked, to have my mind blown into a chorus of starling. Their tune, has become my journey. The cracks? A way in, and out again. This hole in the sky, singing less like mercy and more like a miracle,…
