Sleep

And the sun roved into darkness
And gazed upon the luminous moon
With its golden stake rays

And the moon burst into brightness
And showered upon the gloomy earth
Its glorious white shiny spectacle

There I was,
Tangled in the loins of another
The moonlight, a tattoo on my skin

Her touch soothed me
Her presence calmed me
And her being laid me to transient rest
