how cold does it get on the moon,
moon? how hot does it get on the sun?
how high is the high
at the top of the sky when the bottom
of low comes undone?

how wide is the middle
without picking sides? how thin
is a sliver of hope? and who do you tell
when there’s no way to tell if we’ll end up
right back at the start?

If the Moon Wrote an Ode to Bacon…

…And how we all know you’d take one
(or in truth twenty-five)
when the pan passes by
with such crispy deliciousness catching
your eye…

whether candied in maple
or just set on the table
there’s no better treat—
peppered, sizzlin, fried, baked, wrapped, stuffed,
shoved inside
of your mouth when it’s
hot and it’s fresh and we
secretly wish we had
boxes and crates and
a hundred-some plates
for an ongoing feast of this
salty, cured meat
that we

can.

not.

stop.

cravin:

Bacon.

train
                 whistles        
          after  
                      midnight

                             moon, play hide and
seek from lake to lake like
steel-gray rocks stuffed in
your nephew’s pocket–

slivers of darkness escape
and skip
across the water.

ripples only
if you see them. echoes only
if you hear.
