M. L. Kiser Poet Sijo

Blood Moon Beauty

Aglow she sits and smiles down at Mother Earth; illuminating the dark night sky.

Her crimson skin blushes and I watch as she spins into blood; her centrifugal body hides behind shadow; her palette…orange to crimson rouge.

A celestial waltz; the dance of the heavens; Venus is jealous tonight.
