Ao(青)Expanse

Hark the synaptic blue,
whose spread lumens obscure
shades of space

(the snakebite stars,
a barrel of gem-eyed eels
capped by blinding orb.)

Here below,
the dirt-mottled brow.
Sealed in cautious appraisals,
caterpillar phased through brutal aeons
crawling towards the endless.

Words continually fail,
tumbling through organic matrix.
They shudder in writhing implosions,
launched into the terran undergrid.

Avalanching aquatic crystals
re-evaporate to celestia
to rain down subetheric
on earthskin once again.

Space redeemed by space,
the reductions all reneged.
Platitudes uncrippled
in cosmic syllogism
and shock.

Reason self-reified,
absurd to the rational eye
housed in neural cerulean
spins ao-silica sky.
