start over new moon

Vipassana

a vibrant blue sky
white gulls crying

slowly awaken 
naked in

an empty end-
less parking lot

walk past a gray
failed mall onto

a rarely traveled 
dirt road at seaside 

an old man sitting
perfectly still 

in the fading
overcast sun

his wife leads me 
to a boat and says

go with the current
it will take you there

the slowly roiling
water gray green 

bruise-blue the
sun setting like

a bloodshot
eye closing

I sail into an
unknowable night

as the moon hides 
its glowing face
