The man on the moon

invisible to us

he hides in her craters

he swims in her dry seas

her dust coats him,

and he runs

silent

across her curves

to the dark side

where he sits and stares

across the stars

into other galaxies

into other moons

his own being a dull bead

rolling around a magnificent

blue green goddess

and he wonders

as his bare feet are cut once again

on the sharp moon-stones,

as the harsh hot winds

make his eyes water,

if the vapory cloud planet

or the gleaming moons in the distance

are as cold and lonely

and aching as his.
