Stepping Outside, Exalted Moon


                              Stepping Outside, Exalted Moon

                              Wild horses lunging uphill,
                              shaggy coats the color of clay,
                              feathered fetlocks thick as mufflers,
                              each delicate spiral horn.

                              On a steppe found only by climbing
                              sideways through time,
                              outside the silken rim
                              of our consensual world.

                              Gods dwell here --
                              mammoth white bison,
                              laughing coyote,
                              trumpeting unicorns.
