A Long Winter

 

Wolf Moon

first of the year

the wild things are restless

cold

 

Hunger Moon

second of the year

food stores are low

lean

 

Death Moon

third of the year

bare ground exposed, cupboards laid bare

empty

 

In this sheltered

modern life

we sit protected from the cycles

seasons

 

Buffered

cocooned and disconnected

immune to the dangers of the moons

the rhythms of life

 

we are safe

from feeling cold

inside we are safe from feeling

alive
