SONNET FOR BEATRICE LUNA
Shall I continue to take care of you?
For far too long you have remained in silence;
Life itself demands your oblivion
To let the new things finally come to light.
But the Moon—the Moon—whenever I see her,
She reminds me of you because your name;
And poetry, being poet, your own—
Does it rise from the distance between us?
What of the friends I gathered after you?
Nerds like me, with hippie traits like yours.
Shall I reject this merry fellowship
That is growing from virtual to real?
