Ekstasis

Ken Christison photo 

To be here and there at once,

Otherworldly and ecstatic,

Accompanied by music,

An ancient, mystic Greek,

Trying to say what can't be said

For there is no vocabulary,

Only equations and optics

For shifting distances,

The moon so far away

And beside you here among trees,

The loves burning inside you

You will not see again.
