Its shape an arc between two worlds,
a sudden brief flight into space
and down again, an eyebrow raised.
Two stout roots that fuse in No-Man’s land,
it’s frozen in the leap that it began.
Consider its masonic handshake
world to world, the messages that pass.
Admire its daring jump between two points.
Place your hands on its naked bones;
touch its loneliness.
