When Moons Are Gone

Sun is pressed
on a crimson
horizon of
the twilight.

Rain traps
the drought
of summer in
this every day.

Eyes don’t see
the failure
of time when
moons are gone.

Dragons spew fire
and I am on the
hot seat of
vulgar questions.

    You mean, like the one in the picture above?
    The pic just sets the whole mood for the poem. Great!
