La Misma Luna, Upon Further Observation




Real life is...
catching the bank
before it closes.
Or withdrawing
everything
before you never see
another dime.
Real life is
laying under
the seductive sky-
Watching Orion
unbuckle slowly
only to learn
it's not just you
he needs.
Real life is
welcoming an alarming
5 a.m. call
because now
it can only mean
good news.
Real life is
staying put
when you'd sooner
drive 700 miles
just to see
his face.

The moon plays such a huge role in connecting souls who're apart beyond their control because they're operating under the same celestial umbrella.
