Of Hummingbirds and Asteroids

#Of Hummingbirds and Asteroids

 It's only in the water that I breathe
 My hope anew.
 Like pebbles (a glissando rupture) shy
 Upon the waves,
 
 I am
          a skittering asteroid, kissed through
 Your atmosphere,
          a flutter-by hummingbird, drawn to
 Your pistil–  
          
 Stay, stay.
 Stay.
