8月25日 Attempting the MoonTonight we attempted the moon, my white mare and I. We went to a field far away from city lights, where only stars shone in the sky. I rode my white mare in slow circles around this field, letter her find her own path, for I could see nothing of the ground. My eyes grew wider and wider as they tried to drink in the starlight and find any features of the landscape in the great darkness. There were still none I could see, and so my eyes grew wider; my pupils overcame my irises and then the whites, and when my eyes became all staring darkness, then I could see.
A faint false dawn grew in the east. I knew the sign. I spurred my white horse, my white mare, and we raced around the field now, galloping. I took control, guiding us with my liquidly dark eyes. We rode in vast circles, transiting the field once, twice, three times, trying to build our momentum, trying to reach the necessary speed.
The moon crested the eastern hills, and I drove the mare forward, lashing her withers with the reins until her mane became the wind. Towards the hills we raced, towards the moon we rode. My hair became a banner behind us, the mare's tail the same. My dark eyes pointed forwards, great gaping holes that stole the light, my mouth a gaping hole as well, crying encouragement to my white mare. We reached the top of the hill - I dug in my heels - the mare's muscles bunched - we jumped. We sailed forward into space, my white mare and I, attempting the moon.
