This isn’t what moonlight
was made for,
not painting rooftops
and building walls, not
drowned out with streetlamp,
with car horn and
hustle.
Moonlight is for sea,
for endless fields of wheat
in soft breeze,
moonlight is for dirt road
and dark tree on
horizon.
Moonlight is for hands,
for silence, for crunch
of earth under foot.
Seek the silver away
from the gold,
away from the glowing
pollution
we send into the heavens,
away from all the lights
we never put
out.
