day for night
i was a moonchild
cloistered deep away from sun
emerging only when
purple cyclamen shadows
fell
silent yet loud as a thunderclap
over the careless dominance of light
out onto the balcony
i would glide
swathed in satin and self-pity
eyes full of silver
sucked in from the moon
a statue standing
silent watchful expectant
arms wide awaiting my dragon
the fierce beast to whom
i surrendered my heart
whose predations i welcomed
as what i deserved
and when i was finally drained
of everything but death
back in i would crawl
eviscerated
but able to sleep
untroubled by gremlins
untroubled by ghosts
something in the universe shifted
i started craving the sun
i no longer haunt the balcony
in the dead of night
i heard the deathcries of my dragon
as he starved
i smiled
the sun's atomic kiss
shoots through me
as i stand on the balcony
unclothed arms wide eyes closed
and receive the sacrament of life

The unseen summer moon illuminates one of the many balconies of Wadsworth Mansion, a historic Beaux-Arts house and now a museum, in Middletown, Connecticut.
