Butterfly Voyage Poem by Angus Wyman Macdonald

Butterfly Voyage



What surprises me most
is how male lust for female beauty
the thing that populations are made of

Rotates into spiritual longing
so deep and true as to circumscribe
the meaning of Time

If we so perfectly love
jealous gods will cast us into the night sky
among the fixed start

Where we are bound
to orbit each other forever seeing, holding
never touching, never releasing
