moon appears as reflection–
sun mirrored into night
but brighter, closer
and how far is far away?–
forever, sometimes, as if
never were always the answer
to the question of when
third eye digs deeper,
dreamclosing the distance, the interval
between asleep and wings
It was cloudy when the moon was eclipsing last night, but later on it cleared into mist, and woke me up, as it is wont to do–the top photo is how it looked through my bedroom window about 3am. And above is a close up. The mist allowed me to get some detail–when it’s very clear all that shows up in photos is an intense light.
A quadrille using the word sleep for Sarah at dVerse. I’ve borrowed the dual title idea from David at The Skeptic’s Kaddish–I ran across the word avigation (it means aerial navigation) recently, and I’ve been wanting to use it for something ever since.
The moon was misty last week too.
