The stars, they sing. They sing a lullaby to the world that helps them fall asleep. I, on this cliff, can see the world closing its eyes. Lights turn off, windows close, doors lock.
Hey Vincent!
Do you see?
Do you see the fireflies?
The fireflies lighting up our night,
I know you are dead
but here is a letter
from a would-be friend.
You have inhaled the sun
and cried golden petals
even on the run.
Your soul sprouted
poplars and stars
