It was a coyote moon.
Full circled and bright
In a sky hung with threads
Of clouds that chased
In single file the stars

Coyote is a trickster
Who fools himself, and others,
Just as the moon fools us
Into believing it cares about love,
And we fool ourselves
About fairy tale endings.

Still…
It is a beautiful sight
To see the moon in your eyes
When the clouds allow.
