Full moon and mars

It's a full moon tonight and just to the left of it you can see Mars shining very brightly.

Moon.

I see the full moon, ghostly

celestial body, alluring orb

out of reach, pinned to

the curtain of the night-

a shady gulf of bygone

episodes. I am moonstruck,

knowing a silver strand is

tied to the tide,

pulling the waves.

If I can see it, then

so can he.....

If I release the thread

he may catch it at the

other side of the moon,

and in some way be

ultimately connected.
