Signs and Portents

In the east the moon appears,
serene as the enlightened face
once glimpsed within the portal
of a Buddhist shrine.

Far to the south, a trapezoid
of diamonds hovers like a kite,
the jewelled tail in imminent decline.

What fiery orbs with hearts of ice
looked down on the embattled earth
as plans were made one night
to cross the Rubicon?
