Lunar Transits

9 1 2
                                    

Yesterday I fumbled for pieces

that slipped through fingers,

never to resurface again


An identity crisis every night—

My sense of self erodes away with

every crash against the rocks


The foam and froth seeped into the ocean

like incandescent spinal fluid tapped

from an eviscerated corpse


And the moon refused to reflect herself

off my waters.
