MOON MAN

‘Here too we dare to hope.’
—Romano Guardini

Swimming down to us
light years
not always a straight line
that was his joke, his night
fears, his pilgrim’s climb.

About half way
throwing his silver
suit away he
sees the green earth
click for the first time:

the lightest girl
the heaviest ocean
coming to themselves
and to his hand.

He sets a comradely couple walking
down his white road,
hospitable; hears a shiny
boy and girl, bird and bird
having a time

in his green water.
Clean against it all
one last hour
all alone the moon man’s
open everywhere:

This mass is his salt
his girl
                    his sky
his work
                        his floor.
