Cosmic Skin
Swimming deep below the surface
Of the vast blue sea,
So smooth and swift it runs no current,
Silent as can be,
Glides a great galactic serpent
With skin like the cosmic sky,
Long and slender arms trailing
By its glittering sides.
Iridescent and opalescent,
Shimmering in the abyss,
The cosmic skin swims fast as light
Through velvety dark bliss.
