How bright is the sun?
Asked the rabbit to the mole.
God answered in lumens
until proven wrong by naked eyes; overexposed sphered ghosts glaze all things
all covered
in colostrum white.
The smell of Icarus’ singed wings
as he approaches the mockery of his pride,
this was proven right by the old man with closed lids who lay in a cradle
that lulled him towards death.
How bright is the sun?
—He cried lucidly in what seemed a return from his seed-at-zero end —.
Oh, these elderly minutes,
how fetal they are!
Awaiting with a phoenix-like ace
under their arm.
Oh, this golden ball
amidst the space
and the tip of my blessing hand
bursts the iris’ cloudy macula
until gone again.
Should lanterns shine for all for whom the sun rises.
For everyone,
the sun rises.
The sun rises for everyone.
