Full Moon On the Rise
Bones crack muscle strains
within this frail body
Teeth ache eyes dim
a yellow film covers them
Arms sleek smooth now pitted
hair begins to cover them
They seem weighted useless
to this human frame
Legs lengthen oh the pain
Back hunches stretches
to beyond belief
In an angry, frothing, shivering
flash of time passing from one
world to another, I could see
the full moon rising
