Celestial Navigation by a Tropicana Sun
By Nathan Savoy
Buzz for the days
begging to squeeze the sun citrus
Pulpy gas giant
wrung gushing like sponge;
Drizzle down to gild dandelions,
Sweet Solar Starfruit,
This skin's going flush
by the brush of your hand.
There's nothing like stars
to nourish and burn us,
Nothing like summer
to dull our demands,
Nothing like coal
for stoking a furnace,
Nothing like night sky
for hatching new plans.
