Moving West
Darkness seeps slow,
draws back the glow from the east,
covers this raintown in a blanket of grey,
hangs a fingernail moon to draw the eye up
through a lattice of trees emptied of green,
claws its way back to the ground.
I find myself here,
so I name it my home and settle for that,
accepting the wary welcome when offered,
likewise the deluge that roils its way down
through the saltwatered air on the streets,
flushing this seatown of light.
