Numb fingers fumble at coppers
and a dodgy purple lighter which is unfit for purpose.

Giant splodges of stars
as if God - in a frolic of youthful exuberance –
went wild with a paintbrush.

Granite delicately held by shape and contour alone.
Slotted together: a melee of ankles, hips, spontaneous larynx.

Careless hopes, dreams wide, menthol cigarettes.
Thoughts all quiet.

An extraordinary moment in one which is very ordinary indeed.

Edit: Wow, I got a DD! Thank you all so much for your kind comments, favourites, and of course to lightningmonkey for the feature.
