Reflected on the Sky

I've never felt the touch of snow,

Yet I write poems describing its cold.

Am I a fraud?

Who knows, but does it matter?

I'm still existing anyway.


All I can do is hope

For my tears to be reflected on the sky

Giving them a home to cry in,

Until they reach another home,

Welcome and forgiven.


I'll let the water clear my vision

Till I can see through

What was opaque before,

Shrouded behind sequins and colours,

Where invisibility stood for dirty peace.


The tiny particles of dust and lashes

On the inside of my spectacles

Will tint the sunlight into a dappled quandary

As a ringing will gust into my ears,

"Oh, what a spectacle."
