Lunacy


The moon had something to say
Last night.
Its light tapped me on the shoulder.
And I turned to see its
Beaming and benevolent
Face
Full and a bit proud
For having grown so bright
Again.
I listened and heard
A low light
Whisper.
Stay awake with me
Tonight.
And shed the
Unnecessary weight
Of your life.
Pile it high by the road
For those who need things
To be happy.
Then wander the arroyos
Until your leanness
Sings to me
I who take your heart
Without mercy.
That is the way of beauty
She says
For those who turn to listen to
The moon.
