Parent message is 46240
must almost
sweet juice
of harvest sun
and sticky fingers

like
picking grapes for
7 days
divide them from the vine
with your sword
getting drunk on
sweet pain
and skyflight-longing
sun in your face
juice on your fingers


SEVEN

because it rhymes with heaven

because of the seven dwarfs

because according to the enneagram
i am a seven
or a four
or a five
or
ah
ha

because a cat has seven lives
and an onion has seven skins

because i was seven when i realized
that keys do not always open doors

because of the NOW! here i am
flying

because i married on a september seventh
am born in septembergold
seventh month according to the roman calendar

because of the pleiades
the seven sisters
chased by orion until the end of time

because the seventh letter
of the alphabeth is G
and G stands for GAGA


BUT of course on a pirate ship
sailing to the sound of the unfinished symphony
into the bondless blue

numbers don’t count
