We are lunar bodies
Beginning in darkness
We wait
the light
shining steadily upon us
Growing bold,
fat with ourselves
Luminous
Against the darkness
Shrinking back
bit by sickled bit
the value of retreat
and emptying
finally understood
Light removed
realizing unity with
a universe
which whispers
of all that lies beyond.
-April 3, 2025, inspired by Magic City Poetry Festival
