glowing swirls,
immense
trotting yellow blotches,
thousand miles each
dust outlined forms,
three dimensional
foreign skies,
caress vibrant worlds
pulsing and spinning
throw off smoky rings
viewed through portals
of an angular womb

2 astronauts,
countless worlds

8 handmade birthday gifts,
delicately saved
1 sleep chamber,
love scented
1 new closet,
hastily cluttered
