Another Moon

the moon is jittery tonight
inconsistent in form
once thin as a lost child's steady moan
now she blossoms
filling up the sky

gracing the night with wonderlust
peeking inside my bedroom
she forbids me to brandish
the poetic pleasurepain
my lover yearns for

instead we both manage
the moon and i, to garner
a handful of another's dream
and enter into it, writing the air of it

as our lovers
become breathless with anticipation
and need...
