Dilemma

—the shadow of God’s smile


moon-horns-2

take the dilemma of the moon:
two horns one night, tomorrow
a small coin in a vast thought
simple as circle
                         ..        things pass,
which is small consolation
if otherwise they forever return
as two horns
mercilessly
at opposite corners of a
skewed smile
