"meet me under the celestial croissant” by Irina Vérène

One Poem Only · Aug 5, 2025 · 1m

meet me

under the celestial croissant

with its ridged crispy dough

and cream-colored insides

dreamy craters

perfect for scooping up space

like blueberry jam

edible stardust

speckled throughout

find me

where silver cutlery light

invites to devour

reflected in your eyes

until the buttermilk orange juice skies

offer milky way breakfast

under the egg yolk sunlight

again
