Moon Accumulation
It rolls across the sky
growing in size
an icy packed shine
in a polar wave of winter
Through a flurry of stars
in a galaxy drift
it plows a far flung
path of orbit

I went to the city today and tonight as I followed the Big Moon home. I could not help but think, it is the one thing so many people share together in a single moment without ever realizing they had something in common. So it comes to no surprise that there was an email waiting with a moon poem written by you. Good shtufffs.

It’s been something, hasn’t it? Huge, setting on my horizon even as I type this.

For some, the moon is the only thing bright in their life as they bend over a fire stirring rice in pot.

and you, virginians, got hit hard by winter’s breath
soon it will all run as a stream or evaporate into another cloud
