It’s the Full Strawberry Moon, and I knew what I needed to do.
Cold fire
The light of the moon
is the flame which consumes
the human façade
until all that is left
is the wolf
that’s been waiting within.
How I spent my full moon Hallowe’en
Our fire department hosted a drive-through Hallowe’en.
Costumes were involved, for those who needed them.
More feet to step on
I have danced
with the moon
to find that now
I have four feet

Valentine’s Day (and Lupercalia) planning
In 2020, the February full moon is on Sunday, February 9, so if you have a date for February 14, they’re probably not a werewolf.
Not a lunar werewolf, anyway.
(If YOU’RE the werewolf, you’ve already taken this into account on your calendar.)
Werewolf alert
Werewolves: for those of lunar influence (or inclination), the next full moon appraches on Tuesday, November 12 at 8:34 a.m. EST, BUT it’s already 92.5% full NOW.
For everybody else: watch out for werewolves as you’re driving these next few days. They may be moon-besotted, and not paying enough attention to traffic.
Werewolves of London, reimagined
Even enjoyed Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves of London,” but wondered how it might sound if written by James Joyce? Well, today is your lucky day!

Contrast
The full moon never shines so bright as against the darkest sky.
Obstacles
The light of the full moon may be blocked by the clouds, but the tides are undeterred.

Supermoon safety tip
Werewolf alert. Which is an alert TO werewolves, and an alert for others ABOUT werewolves. Don’t let your Supermoon gazing distract you to the point that you do not hear the stealthy approach of a werewolf.
