Sky Ghosts

through war-hollowed buildings and forests of trash,

the tar-thickened waters and wastelands of ash,

now freed of flesh, speeding through the clouds,

the kiss-chase starts as our bones break down,

a nuclear sunset sounds;

the hole where life, for us, was drowned

through cavernous ice floes

and mountains of shale,

the daisy-swept meadows

and oceans so pale.

we'll meet on the iceblink,

some secrets we'll share,

while prismatic light-beams

add color to air.

leave inhibitions there,

the godless skies left unaware...

radiation filled the space where

angels ought to be.

with a disaffected smile she turned

and said to me (this is forever)

whatever cloud you're on i will find you,

i will find you

in time.
