MOONWATCHING

I wasn't up in time for the Red Moon,
but I caught the I unswallowing…

Watching the moon
come out from our shadow;
Orion burning brightly;
The silence except for the river
running,
and
a distant motorbike's roar.

Daft, I know,
but I like to think,

if I stick out my hand,

I can make

shadow puppets on the Moon...

What a shy Moon this is…

It's hiding behind the trees now.

Lunar eclipse tonight…

It's passing through our shadow…

Do give it a wave.

(Then there was this:)
