Moon Powers february 10, 2018

A picture can inspire the fingers to create the words that appear on the screen. Not always, but sometimes the image comes first and then the poem.

Moon Powers

The best we can do is place the moon

firmly between the index finger and the thumb.
Gently though. You don't want to crush the life
out of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Think of
the whales and mereswine and the surfers and
shore bunnies and the tall tales and sea shanties
of sailors and pirates that would cease to exist 

if you squeezed just a little bit too hard.
