Revolutions

I can feel the Earth spinning

And it makes me dizzy. 

I can feel the Sun burning 

And it makes me warm. 

I can hear stars exploding

And it is deafening.

I can. 

I can see atoms bonding

And it makes me lonely.

I can see feel cells dividing

And it makes me sad.

Where all the life joining

Simply comes apart.

I can't.

The universe is expanding

But my muscles are contracting.

With each stroke I write

I am destroying.

But creation is worth the graphite

Swiftly shattered in silence.

I will.

Each face has a word

And world without race.

Each book hasn't finished

For I hate endings.

In the universe expanding

I give it infinity.

I do.

I can hold the stars in the palms of my hand.

I can't stop them from burning.

I will write you their stories.

I do not stop.

I am.
