Medicinal Valentine

I drink to the full moon
my spoonful
of medicine
he too is terminal
opalescent tumor
rising and falling
how you rock
within me moon-death
as if I was carrying
another life inside me
to be carved and molded
each yearning appendage
given its dosage of touch
its taste for the bitter truth
but not too much
