Phases (Song Lyrics)

The moon is a poem
ivory carved to a sliver
then gone three days later,
gleaming quartz
appears again
among points of silver fire, circling the sky
slowly like a white cow
in a fragrant summer meadow.

The moon is a poem
full in my mouth
summer’s first berry
served as communion
dissolving on the tongue
sometimes she’s gone
and I gulp at the air
thirsty for darkness
on a fragrant summer evening.

The moon is a poem.
