I prayed to a Cassandran moon

--that tomorrow I would dream of night

and nothing else. Silvery songs of satire would not

embark my windowpane, down by the daylight

 

Till that moment, I would be soaked

in the mere tint of Formalin.

When I accuse you of being non-existent under the moon

would you defend and prove me wrong within?

 

The branches had been cut, and holes filled in. Now the moon

it penetrates through my crevice and releases its pain

so that I would be full.

Full and healthy and sane

 

as if I will not dream again.
