Challenge
the moon will sing
inspired by the Crane Wives' song 'the moon will sing.' write poetry that has to do with this phrase
Oh and the moon will sing her victory
glory dance
watching with her crater eyes
as I lie alone
outside
feet to the sky as if to run across her patterned bedsheets
like child to mother
crumpled linen around her eyes
as I smile
these endless sheets
aching to swallow me
in their darkness
oh how I long to join that web
of sewn stars
i could use the point of a needle
to paint my way into that coat of dreams
the moon sings a siren song
who knows who wants it more
for my bleeding heart to hang there
inbetween her tangled strings
holding me safe
safe from any harm
