Man on the moon

Does the man
on the moon
cry for us?

Does he hide
his phosphorescent face
behind stiff hands

and wonder why
he must always
light the way?

Does he face
our blue world
and lean away

wishing he could
hide from our
stiff smiles and

wandering eyes, wishing
man could see
his own light?

July PAD Day 4 - night lights over the lake

Ink blot

There are nights

when I look up to

see the sky

dripping black and blue

like an ink pen

that's exploded in 

a shirt pocket ...

which makes me think

of those NASA nerds, 

whose job it is 

to stare at the

sky, and who poorly they're 

portrayed in every movie
