Jeff Dai – Perseid fireball, Aug. 11, 2013 Taken from Mount Jinfo, Chongqing, China A soundless flicker A smoldering streak Awaken the dreaming eye A shimmering flash Fragmented flames A glowing trail left by As so your breath Against my cheek Burnished ardent vapours You brush your hand Across my back Effect atmospheric pressure Then all will bend To galactic force All hail the meteor’s nascence A singeing flare With impatient thrust Shall court his cosmic siren And Earth will ope’ Her dewy mouth A yielding lip so tender A blushing kiss Its tremulous graze Ignites the Perseid ember...

A diaphanous face And longing filaments Her chiffon robe Cast softly yellow Upon the spine The disarming sepal Against the nettle Her ruffled cloak Sheltering tender fruit To guide the zealous thorn Lest it stray too far In its rhythmic dance And pierce the petaled veil She will mist with perfumed air And intoxicate the viridescent scabbard LiNdA
