The sky’s freckles twinkle with a spark of curiosity.
I watch from below.
Earbuds in.
From the corner of my eye, I catch a glimpse
of an invisible knife cutting open the sky.
Fast it appeared, and fast it went-
The sky leaves no blemish unattended.
More tiny blades from out of nowhere
rain across its face above
until the bright lines streaking across
hypnotize my heart and soul.
The hour it existed
lasted one thousand years.
Then the sky sheds its midnight colored coat
fading into an ombre shade.
Scarlet rays break across the horizon.
Earbuds out.
