hunters’ moon

markswomen
huntsmen
this the moon
of Orion

prepare
for
the warriors’ watch

prepare for
the bend
the arc
the curvature
of your bows
your quivers hold
an arsenal

track
this eve
under the hunters’ moon
with no game in sight
this night
prepare for your winter ahead

your target
courage
strength
endurance

focus on fortitude
realize
you rely on no one
yet ready
to support
the hunters lost and confused

markswomen
huntsmen
prepare for winter ahead
the hunters’ moon
shall cast a light
take aim
take claim
your resolve
is in sight
