the sun climbs
up a stairwell
built for a moon,
& burns it.
the moon
has nowhere to go
and luna's journey
no longer rotates
around this star,
they collide
& down
comes asteroid
after asteroid.
suicide drips from his lips
and the taste,
is very bitter.
he looks into the sky
& through the scarlet screams
succumbs segments of newly
sought after signs,
this is where God
lays his hand
this is where she
becomes Juliet.
