The Moon is drowning
+ -The Moon is drowning
- - - -The moon is drowning the stars it pushes them
under into the darkness they cannot breathe
they are flailing the moon boasts to my shadow
how powerful is the moon how great its light
My shadow nods and calls the moon father though
it acknowledges also the existence of others
headlights are like little moons father my shadow says
they pass like waves in a dark ocean
Father moon becomes angry and threatens
I can maroon you shadow I can trap you in darkness
your strength comes from my own the little moons
are fleeting like foam on a darkened sea
My shadow fears the night as it fears death
but it remembers the moon’s strength is from another
my shadow wants the headlights like an ocean
might want the moon as a seducer as a lover
The moon is drowning the stars it pushes them
