Einstein says, there is no end
to the universe
In the rain, you dissolve
into the 39th page of love
On the 39th page in any book
I see your face
Grow outward like ivy
on a dead horse
In the beginning when nothing
was nothing, a violin as you
Rang through dark matter in ultra
violet light perfumed by 1,000
Decibels of wild lilies strangling
the universe until the universe bangs
After millions of years, you lift
a lid & inside the lid is a dead
Horse’s heart & you replace it
for yours
In a jar I find your old heart
beating as loud the speed of light
I drizzle oil, dig deep & bite
until the universe is meaningless
Until my body lights up
like an oil lamp going out
Until our dead rise by artificial
gravity until your nothing
Becomes a universe within
a something & the grass
Radiates green & the heart
I ate clumsily
Is everything we are
despite the universe
