A brand new year...seventeen syllables at a time.

3 am


baleful and bruised
a shadow darkens
the night's bright eye

velvety eclipse
blossoming bruise on pale cheek
spreads across moon's face


cherry throat lozenge
lingers in the morning's sky
translucent and moist

in to thaw a bit
nose pressed against kitchen glass
watching the moon change
