Moon
By Risa F. Scott
Published Issue 091, July 2021
I saw the moon
And thought it was
A streetlamp. Stuck
On the corner
Of Cimarron
And Church street
Where the wilting
Schoolhouse is shut
Always bolted
Leaning where dreams
Leaned, a crushed beer
Can in the brush.
I’m waiting for
What I never
Thought I’d have to
Ask for. I thought
I saw it then,
Following the
Bright headlights
That weren’t for
Me either. I
Think it’s something
Significant
That has changed. I
Used to think all
Lights could be the
Stars and the moon.
