Half a world
Away
That moon is steady
Marching on
Opposite horizons
How I know you see it too
This
Fall’s revue
Of Harvest moon
Half a word
To say
All
That can be said
I am damned and I am silent
A frosting leaf
In a gardener’s mulch
A lifeless stone
In a barren sea
Half a world’s
Too much
Too much
For me.
