Moon Man, Mundane Monday, At the Pond, Hungry, Free, Here

Moon Man

You come around
round and white with pomp and perk
you chase twilight and rise against the dusk
to light the sky like the sun
tonight all men will look high
to see silky sky and bright moon in the middle
like a heavy note hanging in the middle of a soft chord
oh Moon man,
buddha belly jolly jazzman
be gentle in your decent
as you go under the flat horizon
leave lingering notes floating
in jasmine sweet air
