Little Worlds

Cas Wilson 1999 (United States)



I want to take
Some of my little infinities
And give them to you
So parts of me
May outlast the meteors
Hurtling towards my bloodshot eyes
The cornea sizzling and burning away.
Take a piece of my finger bone
To take with you when you go
So it doesnt burn up
In the swirling eruptions of creation
That consume me.
