A Series of Eight Poems Painted Upon Stones and Tossed Into the Sea: 7

heartbroken
the moon
so blinded by itself
rendering
the object of need
unattainable
slowly allows itself
to drift
back up into the sky

hubris
saturates the night

the man
self aware
yet
uncomprehending
felt the vibrations
of the web

the spider
death incarnate
raced forth

beneath
the waves
all
was undisturbed
