the summer moon is a cruel marionettist

Jon Nakapalau

because she pulls on hearts

making them move
on stage of warm breeze

with white light strings
that pull tighter 

till she becomes
a fisherwoman 

that has hooked 
the pulled beating

out for bait.

    That bait pulls so many of us in.

      It did for me - all through my 20's.
