And I Wonder Then

 the moon almost touching

the looming uneven ground 

is everything I need it to be 

I am alone with it 

or so it seems

I want it for my own

to slip it in my pocket

an uncommon thief stealing away to 

a secret place to idolize

the wonder of it 

heal in its soothing light

in hushed tones

exchange what we believe we are today

ever hoped to be

and  I wonder

then
