The Curator
She started with nothing – not even blackness, there were no colours and no concepts. The universe had forgotten, and nothing would spark her into recollection. Rubbing her edges on emptiness she held her breath – at once blew an ever-ballooning cosmos hotwired into endless birth. Tonight, look up at her sky— it is full of pearls and in the depth of her seas stars kiss gold-winged fish. Planets make rough love to their moons and there is blackness now: there are colours and concepts – unredacted stars; there are paintings hanging on the walls of her mansion.
