Poem with No Moon
Olivia Stowell
the right place for it
is sky, where it belongs
he says he’s become
his own worst enemy—
someone who can’t relax
without everything in its place
but he unsticks that white eyelash
from sky
and drags it
into my poetry
blows it off his fingertip
leaving me with wishes
and early morning
with no light.
