“Moonrise on the Cane River.”
![](kane--moonrise_files/P7046693.jpg)
The moon is a surprised white face over the darkening river
Even before a pair of blue-grey wings swoops down
Between the O of its mouth and the O of a surfacing fish,
And the phone rings, and it's you in Baton Rouge
Grilling a silver catfish and staring at the moon.
