We met while the stars bicker
Their brightness
as they flicker
Awaiting for the gasping moon to cast
Silence on who is the brightest
It soon alights its throne and
Contours the monochrome sky: light and dark.
The air soars pass our sleeves to our bodies.
Chilling the proverbial coffee with each stir
Of silver spoon: Tink, ka-tink, tink, ka-tink.
Mellow light fills us with the drama of a bustling
Bistro as it mixes into the cauldron with blabbing
And shouting, and laughing, and more blabbing.
A smile, maybe two joins the mixture.
I asked again for your name (believe me, I have a
Problem remembering those) as we laugh to find
Out that we share the same title: “alone and restless”
Out of a billion souls that walk and scour this rock,
We meet while in unison of the same song sung
By old bards with near-brorken Sra'ajhhs
about the fallen, the risen
And the journeying.
