The moon sees me
    Alone in sitting
         Toasting the enemy
    Toasting the friend
Both found now in solitude alone, lonely

All that has been
    Intentions in place
         Testing the unkind
    Testing the thorn-bites
Both found now in solitary persona, named you

Sorrow carries me
    I do not carry it
         Releasing the desired
    Releasing the moon
Both found now in soliloquy recited, way too long

(Curtain falls...
    Anyone got a beer
         Watching the moon
    Watching my own self
Both found now in solid truth, dismissal again)

I see a beach bonfire
a small party of friends
but a lonely sense of reflection
this could only be "soli" yours, of course
nice

"Watching the moon
Watching my own self"

Such dualism. And Brian said it best, although I fear it is not a piece "soli" felt by you. Loved the two foldness meaning.

"sorrow carries me, i do not carry it"

reminded me of "the man in the iron mask" ("i wear the mask it does not wear me")

you wrote well here.

i'll always need a friend, one i can defend.
