This is my submission for Fractal Writing Contest 9 hosted by @nyarlathotep.

A ship's tide exploded
Into a kaleidoscope of tinted lights;
Little me sailing into space
Between clitoris and Mons veneris;
I shudder, I stop.
Of the stretch mark patterned thighs
Of those forgotten memories,
Comes this urn of ashes,
Of aliens on a spree to take us all home.
That weaves about a shuttle;
That shuttles us to and fro
Like fireflies sitting on the wings
Of tender winds, like the sun
Peeling it's skin and birthing a rainbow
That has forgotten how to shine.
Most holy one, goddess
Of lost space and alien races.
I am satiated with the nectar
Of your pelvic girdle
And seek but to gird you
Like the river bank of the Ethiope,
For you are a restless divinity.
I end.

Hey there. English is not my native language so I can't say that I am an expert on poetry in English, but your poem really impressed me. Thanks and congrats!

It is not my native language also, my friend. It is a received tongue but one must communicate with the world, so there.
I am glad my poetry impressed you. Do come again.

I feel like I'm now reborn after reading this hahaha. Seriously, though the language and imagery here are amazing; half cosmological, half anatomy, I feel like the choice of language has a lot of depth in itself.

Hmm... Thank you @kingofworms. It was a spontaneous write. I actually wrote it straight into the contest comment. I am yet to fully grasp what I said in the poem. 😂
Thanks for stopping by, do come again. Stay safe. Peace

Hahaha I'm the same way sometimes, I write what I think sounds good, and then figure out what it means after hahaha
