Blood Moon (Day 1040)


I am the new moon’s razor edge

be careful

the beguiling coral fire that burns 

at dawn

you know what they say

when something luscious calls 

you’ll hear my whisper

close your eyes now  step aside

the sidewalks slowly empty

your blood bright as the morning sky

speaks my name  

a storm rises  with a few words 

the work is done  no tears  no regrets  

it is my way  and yet

somehow I miss you  all the same
