moon

we learn of

celestial bodies in science,

 

and i touch
what is
considered

 

forbidden
knowledge about
the stars;

 

the longing of
the supernova
to cover as

 

much of
the blackness
as it can in

 

a moment

of explosive
intensity. write

 

me a song on
the blackboard
in health class

 

comparing your
nature to the
onslaught of

 

solar winds,
atmospheric
pressure on my

 

lungs, and
the force of
gravity you

 

inflict
upon the
bearer of flowers.

 

tug and pull
celestial seeds
floating in

 

its own beaker.
attack me.
force me to

 

answer and
make me
want more.

 

ignore my
protest and eat
up the blank

 

space with
smeared
fingerprints and

 

crude words
about my lust in the dark

and how

the night sky
swallowed me

 

whole.
