Aurora Borealis Poem by Kendell Cochrane

I want to be dissolved,
Lovingly,
Sift me,
searching,
Only to realize glitter
Runs not through these
Tapped out veins,
Though, equivalently
In my defense,
You'll find no
shortage of colour.

Send only warm winds,
& I'll wildly dye
Long, leafless, birch tips,
Before my hands join
The rest of
My wandering soul.

Use my heart like
That of a jar,
Usually home to burnt sienna ink,
paint me into night skies,
Hide the secrets of
It's oceanic depths,
through impeccable calligraphy,
Whisped between magnificently
wondrous stars.
