stardust

by Lisa Molina

pinpoints of lifefragments of exploding stars
moon eggs floatcontentedly in a mother’s womb
growing, stretching, turning,hearing the rhythm ofthe heart blood flowing
seeking more spacepushing and proddingto discover new worlds
even if by painblood fear andsaltwater tears
interconnected by the stardust within all of us
and the rhythm of moon lifewaves breathing
in and outback and forthebb and flow
whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh
