Games played with the moon

Moonbound loon, printing runes in my master’s annals

Tomb of old titans, striations and rilles once thought canals

Ocean’s master of motion, commotion among the low nations

Atlantean eraser, brine bracing braziersmothering

Carving handshort devotions with Occam’s razor

Lurid, luring fascinator, who turneth me

Toward which ravenous lupines croon tunelessly in cold eternity

Many degrees higher than forecast, a furnace heat turns my chalice

To gold jelly, I flip an old penny ten times heads to spite chance

None immune avast yon vast alabaster, church-blasted bastard

Sages ancient suspected one day drake babes would break out

Flamebathing the world naked, hayless as the first day

A heinous way to hit the reset button, vengeance glutton

Family madness waiting in the braincase like bats in the attic

Selene’s best celebrant

She, day’s opposite, plays with me games

I know not the rules yet I play, engaging

A swollen greengage bidding me enpage my pain

Symbolically the doctor of the creation

The greengage is imagination purged of its banes, cured once lame.
