Poem: the moon walks

Preface: I seem to be developing a thing for the moon.


"the moon walks"

the moon 
cut into the canopy
by the teeth of the gods

audacious it soldiers above us
daring to soar
sail boats
over our blue eyelids
and down the gleam on our hair
combed down backs of heads

it hums brazen
a laughing stamp of hope

walk
moon-proud
alive as rock

turn turn turn
and it is an etching
watching the
paper yellow trees
shine

sing
joy

and
crawl
