draft.

in the symphonic hall

warm euphony spreads,
hovers golden
as rich timbre'd cellos sing, soar
brim empathy shining

heightened wavelengths extend toward
                                  soaring glassplanes above-
diffuse
into soft light, misty
and grainy- a photograph circa 1960.

upper orchestra d101: a woman
empire waisted, her hair in perfect curls
and lips
red and moist
like her eyes, sits
as words bring to pass
a man

her star
glimmering in the sky
         his earnestness on bended knee and
            the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled...

bright light pierces ink oceans deep
as telescopes with heartbreaking clarity
reveal implosion
millions
        and millions of years ago.
