lifting your head up

the moon in full

is lowering her body

over the ocean

a white cow lilting by

bell clanking gently

leveraging, onto your elbows

your partner laughs

“no, you are not dreaming”

the beach is white in the moon light

the cow’s horns nod, steadfastly

as she crosses your gaze

– intent on getting

past this unexpected

apparition on her trail

her eyes averted, not looking at you

as if to say

I am not comfortable

with this queen sized futon and pillows

and duvet, with human people

in the moonlight

on the sand

looking at me

situation

this seems reasonable

and, you feel

love

for this surreal life

on earth
