I stood alone, waiting
The blaze of silver shining in my eyes
My hands of gleaming gold
The red of iron in my veins
The blue of steel in my bones
The sparkle of blackness of coal in my hair
My chest golden with waved
It is my heaven
It has my eyes
It is my space
It has my shape
I knew it was my masterwork
I felt the strength of gods
Revised the soaring heights
Let the heavens be aligned
I listened with care the place for the moon
Made sure of the tones
Painted through void the route for the sun
Made out the locus of stars
I pierced the distant dome
For the lights to seep through
I checked the curves of borders of all
And placed the highest star
It is my heaven
It has my eyes
It is my space
It has my shape
It worked and sun and danced
It shone and gloved and gleaned
It circled, curved and blazed
It pulsed, burned and waned
It flowed from my bones
And bolted from my fingers
And settled on and over me
And made me face my longing
Under the vault of heavens I stood alone, waiting The blaze of silver shining in my eyes My hands of gleaming gold The red of iron in my veins The blue of steel in my bones The sparkle of blackness of coal in my hair My chest golden with waved It is my heaven It has my eyes It is my space It has my shape I knew it was my masterwork I felt the strength of gods Revised the soaring heights Let the heavens be aligned I listened with care the place for the moon Made sure of the tones Painted through void the route for the sun Made out the locus of stars I pierced the distant dome For the lights to seep through I checked the curves of borders of all And placed the highest star It is my heaven It has my eyes It is my space It has my shape It worked and sun and danced It shone and gloved and gleaned It circled, curved and blazed It pulsed, burned and waned It flowed from my bones And bolted from my fingers And settled on and over me And made me face my longing Explain Request ×
