In the starless sky blue sky





In the starless sky blue sky
                                             
by harlon rivers


   
dancing alone,
    when the sky
    is falling down


     free falling
      spinning …
rolling & tumbling 

uncontrollably around


rapt in the variegated
    shameless air
in the starless sky blue sky,

murder of crows watch
 from above high wire

grey nothingness aground …

tucking in the arch of a diver
    rolling upside down


Falling at the speed of loneliness
 espy the passing edge of a ledge
     with empty nest of brown

          uncaring glimpses


              ...the gravity
              ...the weight


           the whoosh of gusting wind

               brushing wild feathers,


                of rushing waterfall
                 becoming a silent
                  fallow creek bed

            …. shattering

    into Many shades of Black


       sky blue Robin’s egg
       nascent hope bestrewn - - - 


           broken pieces
       lie beside the tears


            awakened 

                  in 

                 the 

                 fall …
