Inverted Earth



Trees reaching down

into the sea-sky,

islands of vapor

floating beneath me,

sea-wind shaking up seeds

into the magnetic ground

that holds me firm

against this warming stone,

dying to live,

expecting my long wait

won't be in vain

for your return,

the way of things

on this inverted earth

to which I belong

and will never leave.
