#118: The Moon is Down

There was a full moon

Well, as we know, clocks tell us little.  They invariably come back to where they were and then start all over again into the weary round.

The moon, by contrast, is as various as waves on the shore or blood's surge around the transits of the body.  Anything can happen


MOON SONG (to be accompanied by ukulele)

The moon is down
the moon is blue
the moon is pinned
up over you

The moon is wan
the moon is pale
the moon is white
and has a tail

The moon is sweet
the moon is new
the moon is calling
after you

The moon is old
the moon is cracked
the moon is last night’s
artifact

The moon is down
And gone to sea
The moon is you
The moon is me.
