12,994. BATTLEMENTS

BATTLEMENTS
Here, having settled down in the
high grass now, for the night, I
can clearly see the open skies.
It is warm here, the air is nice.
-
Way over, from the left, I've been
watching the rise of a fourth-day
full, moon-waning, changing its
being, however you would have 
it. Nothing lethal, like a cosmos
on fire, just instead a calming
late night's light.
-
It moves so slowly, from left to 
right. When I awake, yes, it will
be gone. But much later tonight,
as I gaze up from these gentle 
grasses, it shall have moved, far
far, to the dark sky's other side.
