Undoing

A thirst for moon, 
on the mute, speechless, dark night. 
Why now ? 
Is this not the right to feel guilt and regret ?

When the snow was falling ?

Who is going to ask the questions ?
From the bloodthirsty bed 
where the moon slept last night ?

Slowly the alienation melts.
You wanted to lead a normal life.
Sometimes a poem wakes?
in the body.

Was it a déjà vu ?
Bird-snow ?
