crystal unicorns

by Karyn Huntting Peters



o crystal unicorn!
walk on digital water,
to violet mountains translucent
across the inland sea.

starry, starry night
and the smooth, white stones
are so inviting at water’s edge—

i am wont to stop and contemplate,
but it is all too lucid,
and i watch melancholy
as gentle fingers without a face
take my hand to hold it up—

come, enter the next level,
dream now, eyes open,
o lucid one of the unicorn!
