Hunger of the night

A broken yolk behind egg white clouds

cools in night\'s darkening hunger

Moon\'s cake strewing star crumbs

sets sky\'s banquet table

 

Slow sliding shade of honey

drenches all with shadows

Craving grass salivates dew

devouring the last strings of star light

 

Abdominal sounds of night

pouring through gurgling streams

croaks growls and screeches

belching of frogs climb upward

 

On the edge of the pan of night

a new egg broken

yellowing the skillet\'s lip

warm meal to fill days belly
