I Was Once Persephone

last week I tore a page out of your book.
tomorrow I will tape my own verse
to its ragged remnants.
the remnants of
your page I mean.

it will be about
a moon that spins slowly
and echoes our fugitive secrets.

that one poem I cannot make work.
oh Luna,
oh Hyperion,
oh Pluto
— demoted.
