Which the Moon Has Summoned With


Where’s Waldo was our favorite book
That and the Valis trilogy we were always
As indiscriminately fleeting as our eyes
Mine a vague hazel and yours an offhand blue
Looking away like the sky changing all the time
We’re entirely particular and disloyal as night
O we’re contrary and bored once again
Life’s too sadly predictable if only we had
A matching set of gray or green even golden
Eyes!  Why should we share us? Why don’t we
Abandon someone else for a change?
We can spare a life or two and snare us
A little sleep and on the contrary how will we
Become legendary my dear? What word?
