tonight i lift my dusky glass

by Peter Hsu

tonight i lift my dusky glass
and sink my teeth into the moon

and from my mouth's ragged wound
that pearly apple pours its blood
midnight's heavy light
into my hollow bed

drenching me to the skin
turning my dreams to silver
and dressing every shadow
as you

Author's Note: it's the crescent moon, i swear.

Then what shall a full moon do Peter? This one worked its spell well!
