These lambent, ambient afternoons we're always
stealing from the universe and dreaming 

     for ourselves

busy weaving together at the cellular level 

    a greater colony of correlated cells

blended in a spectrum from twilight to dawning
  upon us as we fall asleep 

     back into our vision

we keep stored in the clouds 

 of our comprehension
like reefs that have escaped 

   into this dimension
