tuck away the moon behind my ear
aura of royal blue
butterflies migrating south
& each word is longer, further
away from where you are
if i ever forget you i’ll know i’ve gone too far
somewhere on the radio
is how i feel about you
is our summer afternoon
leftover flowers gather on the side of the road
each window carries its own
little rain
night car
in winds and wants
designing skybreaks
because the full moon is children’s book gigantic tonight
and maybe it’s the impossibilities that
make us so possible
so come your eyes & tuck away this moon behind my ear
