serendipitous moon

a poem

image amalgamation: author — RTT: her own

The stars reflect betwixt cloud absorbed by light

Light lackadaisical breaching a serendipitous moon

The moon in its seventh house plies its shadows

The shadows refracted by a magic soul

A paradox intersects with paradise

An obtuse paradise mirrored in your dreams

Your dreams dissected by your nightmares

Of shooting stars and serendipitous moonbeams

Altered discourse and wasted shadow lands

Apparitions crack to set you free

A brazen star a faded glory

Conjoin with light to tell the truth

Collected paramount is the palimpsest

Where spilled fervour is bled dry upon the page

Reflect all those serendipitous moons contemplating

And begs just one more night to break your soul
