Skywatch Friday: Delaware Memorial Bridge

The temporary suspension of disbelief
Carries me across this water--
Styx, Jordan, or perhaps just a nameless gap
Cutting through jagged earth--
On a journey south,
Carries me to a greater fiction,
A warm place
Where lies tell the truth
Without causing any pain
Where love never ends or dies
Only changes form
In the sensible world
Where everything is within reach
And blue skies are a given.

Skywatch Friday
