Selene Eileithyia

An Eclipse Ekphrastic

"Selene" by Susan Seddon Boulet

Every shadow is a stygian field

Concealing our sins from a judging eye

Leering Helios scorns weakness, revealed

Insipid are our antics from on high

Praise gentle Selene, shield of our small shame

She is no judge, weaver of cool darkness

Each night, we ought to Her glory proclaim

Ekphrastic
