Back from the Dark Side
Behind moonface stare
communication is lost—
static staccato
fills the gaping silent holes
in the conga dance of time
Earth now slips from view
its skull-dragged behind the moon
to the other side
only astronauts have seen
lied about in lucid dreams
Back from the dark side
lost incommunicado
what phase shifts transpired
in the watcher and the watched
contemplating the dark slide
