For a Clay-cold Day

My whole effort is to help you
release the energy called love-intelligence.
If love-intelligence is released, you are released.
--Bhagwani Shree Rajneesh

remember
when the moon slipped
so low it

sent willow branches
rolling like tumbleweeds

remember
how I waited until
the moon'shadow
scooted across the lake

then pocketed the
phantom shape
