The adulterous moon

The moon shivers
On the river
Smiles kindly at the worshippers
And showers light on their enemies

Earthquake felt afar
On the horizon that
fluttered like a caged bird

it’s a moonlighting night
but can the star
be questioned
for its inconsistency

the trembling river was trying
to digest flesh
in the unfaithful spring
full of flowers and birds
with twigs and herbs

every other creature
was in deep sleep
to let the shame pass
when the moon with leisure
betrayed its followers
