Green Supernova (Infinite)

You are indubitably all seasons of the universe, whether that be the hot December of Venus, or the ague August of Neptune.

In the dead of space,

silence gathers 

like fingers on skin;

guiding me towards

distant, green withering lanterns.

Promising me safe travels,

nomadic debris as thin as plastic

carry me to where you are,

and where you are,

sounds like the chiming strings

of a waltzing October Cello.

Hesitant, I saunter,

into a Supernova of feeling;

Never had I gambled

to make love to its beauty

until you gave mouth

to this sleepless reticence.

Here, I am

short of breath,

but full of life,

In your Green Supernova.

Author's Note

You make nothing feel like everything

I was so glad to find a new one of yours, Ally... I refilled my coffee, sat down to read, and BAM! ... I was hit in the head by your 'Green Supernova!' What a beautifully cosmic event you've orchestrated--I could pick out any line and say something good about it, but "... and where you are/sounds like the chiming strings/of a waltzing October Cello" just makes me smile, sit back, and enjoy the show. This piece is gentle in tone and full of romantic metaphor. I loved spending some time in your universe. Excellent writing!

[Conor Larkin]

This is some damn good writing. It's always a joy to read your writing. I especially love the lines "silence gathers / like fingers on skin" and "sounds like the chiming strings / of a waltzing October cello". They both really work to express a sensual feeling. Really great poem.

This is money all the way... Pardon the cliche compliment, but your poem gives me chills... I think it was beautiful in the way it seemed to expand its own consciousness from within itself.... Absolutely love the universal truth it exudes... K.

This poem is a perfect example of unity between human mind and galaxy. It is hard to admire one above another.
