mist (15.04.28)

mist lifts

sun’s shadow
reflects
on a full moon
revealing 
heights all around

some
barren
jagged
sturdy


others
lush and enticing
camouflaging
teeth
pit
snare

a crater
where all directions
leads to
an uphill battle


is the
heat,
disconcerting,
a memory of
a blazing sun

cooling
heating
endlessly

or a hint
of something deeper

i’ll sit
praying
for earth's shadow
for the guidesof night sky
for time-
before the invasion and settling of
smothering mist
