moonsnake climb
There are certain things
that are only active
in a bright silver moon ,the kind that comes
between three , and four. Mistletoe
and lemurs, for one -(and another)- and there are many others,
who wake ,and listen , and grow in this
luminescence - look about
with large quiet eyes, crick crack leaves open,
move in a subtle way
around the trunk of a tree - even thus
the moonsnake climbs, only to wait
through dark or heat, sometimes weeks
before another hour like this.
