Afterglow

Even if the full moon wanes
Between forests of trees
& the rustling of leaves-
Persuade me;

I have sealed my possessions
They no longer possess me

So let the branches bark,
& cold wind dance
A footprint left behind
On frozen mud;

The night makes me a stranger
Only to the self
I'll let the nightingale
Sing to me.
