Moon Laughing East Like a Wine Soaked Poet

MOON LAUGHING EAST LIKE A WINE SOADKED POET 

(9/12/05 - Somes Sound, on Mt. Desert Island)

A spilled red wine jug on the deck
my black dog “Imus” warms my bare ankles
stars sketch symbols in the ancient dark above
Somes Sound's Luna tides’ ritual movement
in my fertile solitude I am practicing an art 
of taming this clawing rage in words tuned
to poet cryptic outer zone enlightenments   
that will  create a monument equal to a heart 
made from the love beneath this wild moon 
laughing east like a wine soaked poet
