Everyone knows that the
best time for stories is
in the deepest, dustiest
corner of midnight as the
moon stretches out across
the weeping branches of a
willow tree, slipping its
silver toes into lakes
black, bottomless throat.
While the other boys
stay up reading with
their booklights, I'm
climbing through
the willow to
catch the
moon and
fly away.
