Bitten Moon


 
Thin crescent Moon @ not so bad Astrophotography
 
Gnawed by ravenous winter,
A bitten moon 
Bleeds white
Into the snow.

Serrated wisps of clouds shred,
Clamping down hard like jaws 
Tearing thin, pale flesh.

Crying far into the sky,
Wolf-winds whine through the trees,
Their fangs of cold 
Striking and devouring everything
That is too alone.
 
Still, you trod on this night
Beneath this moon
Slowly eaten away 
Inside the freezing winter of time.

You have a home to journey towards.
