Fenrir and the Star

I dreamt that you swallowed the sky;
snapped those cold chains
a second time
and ruminated a fragile
freedom.
I dropped from the empty black
like a loosed diamond--
tumbled into strange country,
into your untame hands.
Who can alter fate's design?
You, there with a sword
in your throat,
and I, lost
among equivalent millions.
Or will we trust that windblown
we too may take root
and flourish?
The scale will tip, Lone Grey:
For who would destroy the world
when there is so much love to make?
