"moon grabbing its fingernail"

Moon grabbing its fingernail
scanning the park
for monsters & slugs
Barbara-a-a-anne
preach us to dream
come take my hand
walk the rough shadows
mundane on the bench
carved into
welcome the guest
nun-like glide
fast and quicken
"stay, thou art too lovely"
basketball outside
lit up at night
"the darkened copies"
crutches but free
popcorn and abandon
silhouette on it
words or footsteps
teach us to dance
looking for romance
fixity not immobility
continuance
the moon magnified
nimbus hot night
thought I'd take a chance
soccer a game
boys play them
