Vapid words for patient explorers

[Composure @composure_black]

Sometimes we are a flood of soft starlight and sweet sadness

[Composure @composure_black]

so many seeming things we are

[Composure @composure_black]

very slowly
becoming
one person
instead of many

[Composure @composure_black]

You are only days
away from the stars

[Composure @composure_black]

I got married last week
My mother suggested for our dance
Rod Stewart's Forever Young
and here we are
in tears
of course 🙏🔮

In a past life I created an obscure Twitter list called "aesthetics"
and I have no idea how you get on that list
but
it sends me into a dizzying poetic dream
Where I finally remember that writing is a superpower
that exists only because you do too
So I'm glad I made it 🙏🔮

Nearly impossible to see the sky from this distance

staying lost

[Composure @composure_black]

Hello dear Poetry Twitter
I'm still here
& I've missed you

I started taking photos
and stopped making words
That was a mistake

It took me years, but I finally realized
they can live in the same place
probably
if you'll still be here

Most of all:
thanks for being beautiful 🙏🔮

Driving through the rain and replaying the saddest parts of the song

[Composure @composure_black]

Realizing you have collected so many memories

[Composure @composure_black]

Some people can sing solemn songs, others can get lost patiently in the fog

[Composure @composure_black]

Gravity will slowly force us to crash peacefully into one another

[Composure @composure_black]

Step into the arena of conflicting orbits

[Composure @composure_black]

Slowly deconstructing like the stars & we should do this more often

[Composure @composure_black]

A swirling mass of stars exploding

[Composure @composure_black]

Ghosts on our shores

[Composure @composure_black]

In this dream we're looking at the same moon

[Composure @composure_black]

Some days we too are cloudless skies

[Composure @composure_black]

Moments in which we collectively drift with the rhythm of a slowly shared breath

[Composure @composure_black]

Beautiful dense places for which there exist no maps
