after a night out 
upright morning finds the moon
in cream and mottle
unsteady
               she stops to lean
               her head on a power pole

From my favourite Australian jazz trio The Necks here’s Open (sorry Spotifiers, I couldn’t find this for you but it’s such a fabulous album, you’ll want to purchase a copy of your own).
