SuperGalactic – pmpope – 2014<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Prelude to the Morning Sun<\/strong><\/p>\n

telepathic trees
\nlaughing with fairies
\nin the nightshade of evening,
\nleaves jostling in the
\nmidnight breeze,
\nthey are softly singing
\nmagical songs
\nthat carry through vines
\nand ground cover
\nto their canopy brothers,
\nall through the forest,
\nwhere the refrain is learned
\nand repeated in rounds
\ncreating an organic choir;
\nlulling the stars to sleep<\/p>\n

~ Jen Pezzo<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

ANCIENT MOON<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ancient moon
\nhovering silently so high
\nnail sliver<\/p>\n

Perfect circle portion witness
\nover chip and wale of lamb fields,
\nhigh wolf ridges<\/p>\n

Dogs howl and sing,
\nremember their wolfenness
\nor sober, sleep in domestic bedding<\/p>\n

Cats make their own security
\npurr themselves happy
\ntails twitching
\nlike firelight<\/p>\n

We look up to the moon
\nsome chalk not easily plundered
\nawesome, distant, pure
\nmoment of stillness<\/p>\n

What is human wolf
\nto human dog in terms
\nof moon — did our
\nchimpy ancestors
\nlook up?<\/p>\n

Or is moon
\nmore our thing
\nused to decorate art
\nand myth, vehicle
\nfor parsing reality into
\ndichotomies?<\/p>\n

Can we see moon and sun
\nas features of same thing?<\/p>\n

More fundamentally one
\nthan two?<\/p>\n

Purr ourselves whole howl?<\/p>\n

Shepherd wolf lamb oneness?<\/p>\n

Do birds look up at it? (The moon)
\nDo fish?<\/p>\n

How does our
\nmammal softness
\nfit
\nwith its rocks
\nand towering light?<\/p>\n

~ Lady<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Fly Me to the Moon<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you suppose the moon howls at the wolves,
\nand they’re only answering?<\/p>\n

It whispers to me, the moon,
\nme a man who would be known.<\/p>\n

No, a mutant who would be known by man,
\nas if that would soothe the missing.<\/p>\n

To thine self be known.
\nThere is no other answer.<\/p>\n

If you return without the answer,
\nthey send you out again.<\/p>\n
