O
indigo star
with surface
of black molten rock
forgotten sun suspended
at the crossing
in my chest
please
hold my weak thoughts
in your out flaring palm
like the wormhole
from before my birth
deciding where next
should I place
this homesick
passenger
then
when I'm ready
unfold my identity
like the first teacher
of origami
who rewound the crane
back to the blank page
so her student could again
hold emptiness
and now
with your own
still fingers
follow the creases
back to the winged
image the great heart
its comet tail
landing down
at your hometown
from heavens dark
and rolling
