Enter now this moon

moon

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enter now this moon,

parading past the shades

wearing only dusky intentions.

Her cloudy slip billows past her knees

and brazenly reveals her starlit muse –

gift for these words.

*

One-eyed heavenly wink,

a gesture of good-will,

brightness of day gone by,

she bares her breast

to let the night suckle its way

once more to day.

*

Her pale, pocked face has no rivals

but spills herself out as offering:

love that looks for mood,

art that looks for food,

bedsheets that turn to brood,

all for the gift of a song.
