HOWL!

By Shawn Galvin


Sink Moon,

Sink beyond dark mountains,

After sailing an ocean of stars.

All night captaining my dreams--

Awash in silvery moonlight.

Pale, twisting limbs,

Excite my mind,

Until awakening

to dawn’s breath.

Wind becomes

Only thrashing branches.

Leave me now!

Awake and forlorn,

Empty as the sun’s shadows.
