Sun hit my hand

Sun hit my hand.

A dark spot, new.

Small, irregular.

Didn't know you.


Lines run around it,

fine riverbeds.

A map of living.

Unwritten threads.


It wasn't there.

Or I didn't see.

Now, fixed point.

Part of me.


Or a tiny star.

Burned itself in.

On this landscape,

where days begin.
