You and the Moon

and, glad the last astronaut there left the light on
I stand by the back door, you have the TV on loud
a coin so high, mid toss heads or tails, who knows
it’s like waiting for rainbows at night, stars to melt
but the laugh’s on you, I could lean here for hours

Clive, I spend time immersed in each line, then work to derive meaning from the poems totality. I am fascinated and intrigued by your poems. In case it's not apparent, it's a complement of your writings!
