Whisper Of Infinity

Alone in the dark of midnight and fear
I hear the wordless melody of love
blast from the big bang louder than sea waves
and bloom galaxies of neurons in brains,
then talk the whisper of infinity.
I feel massive suns explode nuclear flairs
when each synapse of my brain flashes clear
to conjure hologram of our whole world
so I time travel in my dreams nowhere
to know the whisper of infinity.
Spreading wings woven from verses of words,
I leap off the cliff and soar on cold wind
spirals over surging ocean of light
that reflects all faces except my face,
and chase the whisper of infinity.
What is this land we call America
where people from every nation on Earth
hold hands in circle around giant tree
that spreads branches to protect us from death,
and chant the whisper of infinity?
I build my cozy home from fallen leaves
and cast warm flames in hearth of river stones,
then hum elegant tunes of broken heart
to translate anguish into aching love
and dream the whisper of infinity.
I teach my children how to speak new tongues
so all the weird languages of one world
weave together in tapestry of songs
relating deeds of gods we imitate,
then taste the whisper of infinity.
I cross the arching bridge with trembling strings
that ring like harp of Phoebus at my breath
so all the possible songs ever dreamed
burst from my head on rainbow flash of laughter,
then sing the whisper of infinity.
This paper coffin that wraps my frail body
in tangled words shrivels to concentrate
the whole vast universe inside gray stone
where I see the face of myself reborn
and write the whisper of infinity.
