The Sky Larked Moon
Blue black was the night
a cat clawed moon fright
larked against the sullen sky
no blow to bemoan
no flight to atone
and so no stars were on high.
The air leaden, gray,
weak of shadow's play
feline howls, growl, harmonized
uncovered shivers
bodies that quiver
by a claw moon undisguised.
