Nights alone riding the river of our past
taking songs to bed instead of you
resigned to half the life we had
I see you there waiting for
my dreams to float the river shoals
Less of forever to go around each bend
until we say hello again, and dance
outside the time of sleep

sleeping in moonglow
a whole moon
shrinking
without stark relief
or angles
perhaps hanging
in a mist I cannot see
its clear light
muted and opaque
entering my room
by stealth
air brushing
walls and shapes
and sets them floating
in the glow
along with me

a shortling, about the moonlight that found every corner of my room last night. it was so different, I couldn’t help but notice.
