Moon-2

MOON

Black holes forbid orbits
Stay where you are
You single minded singer

Full blown blob of my predilection
Would find your circuitous centre

Thoughts defy gravity
Following  the law of most resistance

You  could be damp and silent
For the ultimate moan
Within this  lecherous night
Beyond all motion, all other moons

So what? Here’s the groan
Of your forbidden light hurtling past
the futile tracts Of  spent words

Guess what. In the deep rapids
To sink with the singing moon.

Perfect. Allegories are illusive enough to entice an empathetic curiosity.
