Phantom Universe

spirals of chimeric glow
dance like fey lanterns
in crystalline grace

gossamer filaments
thread across
a stardust field

in hypnagogic reverie
distant illusions hum
a silent lullaby

silver-laced comets
arc in a
midnight dance

nodding constellations
wink in quiet symphony
above drowsing worlds

nebula phantoms
swirl with cosmic
opal gleam

far beyond
earthlings’ hearing
drifts the cosmic chord
of undying dreamlight

meanwhile,
with fragile pulses
we become starlit echoes
that vanish into labyrinthine dreams

sensing the intangible voice
of uncharted astral tides.
