rest you upon the neap moon’s smile

rest you upon the neap moon’s smile



what was once the high tide’s reach

is now an estuary of stranded thoughts

the broken boat hanging on its chain

wrigglies in the veins of the mud

reed-spliced the wind flows into

one year and out of the other

distant their surf breaks on the reef of times

they are gone now but they will return

for they are closer than you think

rest you upon the neap moon’s smile

nothing that begins lasts
