My whole world
was eclipsed
last evening
at 9:00 p.m. sharp
a brightness fell
across my dark shadows, unshaven
a warm glow split
the craggy face I call my own
into a crescent smile
as my six year old
kissed me goodnight
this tiny piece of me
that spun off
in a stellar explosion
of immense proportions
some 81 months ago
the same son around
which I now gravitate
always pulled much
closer to his light
watching my dark side
spliced asunder
in the overwhelming
intensity of his love
now the Man-In-The-Moon is me
basking in the splendour
of my tiny son
