oh to

oh to


the words are closing in with the dusk

eyes narrowing to the silver of the moon

some words are fulsome

some from the dark side

the dotted penumbra 


oh to be eclipsed 

to meet another poet

who outshines me

to climb another step

to the stars 


there are more words lurking out there 

i can feel them circling circling

the fire in me is dying tonight 


if I dream of tomorrow 

i might catch them fast asleep
