The Watching One

Conflict and PeacemakersPoetry

Blue stone sky
Could be crushed to powder
And used to make the richest pigment
Known
So deep
So endless
You could lose yourself in its
Vastness and live another life below
This sea
Outside this world
Hands to glass
Peering in with stars looking over our shoulders
