Heavenly hour, sisters
She walks around, head down, eyes set to dust,
sand is red around. She is her usual she, she is
and even before—on streets, beach, heaven,
a haven. Call her timid, call her haughty,
a rain-ness she will not place herself, cannot
haste from. Can she?
Call her explorer, half-true, but when her heart,
so she, right down the desert, dirt under nails.
She walks where glimmers and gleams, beams, sees the blaze
in stellar spectacles, sees His nature's expo airing the night away
today, in the heavenly hour. Eyes set on the star vault,
her sisters to feel safe. She is her new she, she is.

"sees His nature's expo airing the night away
