the tides have become irritable
imploding the beaches
with bitter force
and the wolves are howling
in higher tones than usual
all the caterpillars have gathered
in a new ritual dance
on the hibiscus plants
now the flamingos seem
to be dancing the limbo
as they contemplate how
the stranger moon
is offsetting the mood
of every living thing
it’s so far outside of the norm
that the silent jellyfish now sings
calling the stranger moon
to come back again
come back very soon
to offset life as we know it to be
because although things are in front of us
we still can’t see
we don’t appreciate
what we should hold dear
we don’t see in front of us
even though it’s very clear
