Shivering Moon
Love is an animal
that rises in the night unafraid
& seeks the visceral core
prior to the segregation of things
into bounded mind & body
Love shivers in the open
awe of impossible being
merged with shadow
& intimate with rainbow light
fiercely stretching imagination
Love is the wild sky
deep cold potential
casting spider silk aloft
joy bonding palette edges
autumn changes all: breath
horizon, eye, heart
Love knows truth
power by shaking
knows shiver
by stillness
