The Bottle
By: Star of Atlantis
Gargoyle on high temple walls
Reveille rolls in swells of music triumph
Coral seas echo in soft refrain
Bell ringing over a lonely bay so rough.
Bottle floats through outer space
Mottle glass, floating encaptured ocean
Travel with time, drifting cosmic garbage
Shoal of star dust, held in slow motion.
