(30) 5

5
Naked truth
lies in the midst of nothing,
spinning knowledge
               and skewed ideals
to the brink and beyond

Ringed in scotch-stars,
the planet shrivels
               under our stare
as dreams shimmer out
each in turn

We lay tangent to truth
slipping to sleep somewhere
               beyond Cassiopeia’s reach


Okay--this one is an oldie, but a goodie. It comes from a series in a book written by myself and my lovely friend Natalie.
