Walker, stop and let me move and check you

My sneaky, fleeting moon of reckless birth

The light of hope you flashed at dawn has dimmed

And flickers weakly, so you squint at Earth.

My fleeting moon, I own you dim my light

Your sparkling blouse has turned a darker hue

You must, I guess, have done a steeplechase.
