Moon
by Argon (Feb 1999)

calm hours retreat
with the moon,
as a domed turquoise sky
silences starlight;
bodies fade-- souls awake
as time propels the dawn
from the night;
the others brush their teeth
and comb their hair.
these hands dissolve the canvas,
bind the sun
and draw the stars,
to freeze a fleeting cosmos
from the quick-drying
air--
