Firmament...Say it out loud
Doesn't it sound
when it rolls from
the tongue
like something solid
underneath the feet
A place that births bursts of light, sweet green things?
The kind of thing or place that
holds deep, thick roots
steadier than waves
strong like stone?
Not like, say, filament
slender, graceful even
threads of lightness
that sounds like the word
heaven really means.
