Moonbow

I cannot see you
But I can feel your
Wide encircling reflections
Twisting
Slowly, bruising
Everything in your path

Moon bow, scarred indigo.

With this second-hand glow
We are losing the stars
But you, only you, remain

Desolate Goddess
Your craters tilt sullenly
Dripping their light right down
Just like an old, broken tap

A light you can suffer
Safe in its secrecy
A white excuse for me
Creator of deepest shadows

Our pock-marked watcher
Unrequited companion
In unimaginable solitude
A witching hour flower

Moon bow, scorched indigo.
