This day is a poem

This day is a poem where a blood red
moon will rise in a dark green landscape.

heavier force, stirring the light,
weaving through dust motes. Next,
a left behind silence is the end of

This day was a poem composed on a
blood red moon, in the company of ghosts,
while I was alone, seeing a current of time
weaving through light, talking out loud
to an empty room.
