 Questions of a Waxing Moon



News comes of Ukraine’s forces 
boldly attacking across frozen ground
by the light of a new moon

when the moon is full 
how far will they have gone?

will they have overthrown armies
taken supply routes
jeopardized Putin’s power?

will they have moved east 
then turned south
to strike at the rear of their besiegers?

when the moon is full
may good news come 

when the moon is full
how far will they have gone?
