7.05.01

The spanse of sky
about the moon is weak,
in its way.
The clouds are flimsy,
fainter than the dull stars
showing through.
The moon is bright, though,
like it was last night.
My toes sense moss below them,
rather than grass.
My hair is long,
it trails behind me,
troubling the wind
to blow it about.
I let the moon shirk behind
a tree as I creep closer to my car,
putting on shoes as I
go.  I slide into
the driver's seat trying
to not let the
car door creak.
If I turn on my headlights,
perhaps this moment will flee.
For once, this town looks beautiful.
