She is the kind of girl
who smothers herself
in Astronomy
New Age philosophies
and coffee shop poetry
All fire and desire
beneath midnight
constellations
Giving kisses
with salty siren lips
Incandescent
in every vein
and particle
She hides her sorrow
behind pages and ink stains
living her life by way of verse
Throwing Hemingway around like insults
and falling in love with every word Keats spoke
Blue cosmic veins connecting planets
a web of interstellar love
Writing her letters to the moon
she hides her heart underneath Helios
So she dug deep trying to find
if she spills scriptures
for passion or purpose
As legs quiver
and she becomes
tender to the touch
You see she transfers
her souls solar heat
into the ring of fire
Annular Eclipse
You see she writes for both
Passion and Purpose
