Personifying the Moon for dVerse

To Wax Crescent

I.

Tonight, the moon
is a slim wisp of herself,
her knees tucked,
and she waits.
 

II.

we throw stones,
we’re safe,
live in a brick house.
and that old moon,
it just
glares down on us.

  1. I like the glaring moon… not always sweet and benign is she…

    1. Nope, not at all. Ask any policeman or emergency services worker, and they’ll tell you the world goes nutty on a full moon.

  4. I wonder if it’s her grumpiness that we feel when the moon goes full. Nice, Misky!
