SUMMER NIGHT

I walked around a cul-de-sac last night—
MUGGY! it mugged me—
sweat pouring down my forehead & back

& all over my nocturnal body;
mosquitoes still out after midnight;
a moth landing on the moon, an architect!

gutting the light, like shimmering
cut-glass surfaces that sing a kind of vanilla
of celestial honey from the windpipes.
