myth or folklore
she lived daylight
in upside down
ochre daydreams
but knew by heart
the fullness of the moon,
every slanted angle.
the cunning starlight
aghast! in wonder
told her secrets to the wanderlust of the wind
and soon even
unexpected adjectives of the ocean
recognized the heartbeat red folklore
of her murmured name.
