重庆诗友萧敏传来这张美国朋友传给她的血月照片，说她从未见过血月的模样。我就传给她我写于2015年中秋夜的这首血月诗。顺便同大家共享：
〈血月〉
原来月亮同我们一样
都是血肉之躯
都来自母亲
充满痛苦与欢乐的
子宫
但她得天独厚
每隔几年便回到
宇宙母亲的肚子里
哇哇重生
血的洗礼
让她在亿万年之后
仍明亮如初
注：2015年中秋夜恰逢超级月食（所谓的血月。要看下一个血月得等到2033年）。半夜里被从窗口射入的明亮月光叫醒，起來写了这首诗。
BLOOD MOON
it turns out the moon is just like us
flesh and blood
all coming from Mother's womb
full of pain
and joy
what makes her different
is that every few years
she goes back to the womb
of the Cosmic Mother
to be reborn
after the baptism of blood
billions of years later
she is as bright
as new
* This year's Mid-Autumn Festival and Supermoon Lunar Eclipse (Blood Moon) both occurred on the same day (September 27, 2015).
