orbit everlasting

Glory stale from sitting out
Sun-baked days/clouds part to rays
This is god we're talking about

Pantry full of promise
Window-sill-shaped pie
All the chefs that time could conjure
Pointing towards the sky

Sandy moon magnificent
Wet-earth home so calm
Hunger pang (or so we sang)
A poem, not a psalm

Orbit everfleeting
Spinning into waste
This ample feast becomes at least
a chance at my first taste.

2024
