missed opportunity

michael raven poems October 23, 2022 1 Minute

i tried cutting
a paper moon to
pin up there
with the
glass shards stars
she scattered
across pitch skies
but
crows hoard
bright, shiney things
and it never
had a chance to
shine

Failure is, in itself, a star to follow.

This one feels enchanting, love the lines “paper moon” and “glass shards stars”.

  I’m glad those lines worked for somebody. I wasn’t sure they would, Of course, I’m never very sure.
