There's the moon

Pale whiteprecise
halfmoonshaped
ghost of itself
against a fragile sky

Regular and real
among the fakingclouds
slashed by
soonforgotten
trips to america

No one sees you

Somehow these brief stanzas have managed to convey a sense of physical and emotional movement Parsons. You have got to be one of the most accomplished writers of short pieces on the site. It's not an easy skill and shouldn't be underestimated either. Another good one as usual from you.
