Long Awaited Salutations

It's been a little while since last I put anything up on here- don't consider that a sudden and drastic change in chance or choice of 'career'; I've simply been forced into taking a hiatus from utilising the internet. And what is there to show for it?

Ode To Moon II

Oh Moon! Moon!

Glorious Moon,

That hang there in the sky;

Bathe me in your marble light

And raise my virtue up

on high!

Take with thee

my sufferings, my sin

Yes! All my crimes!

And leave me just,

with happiness-

The way your beauty shines.

Oh, Moon!

If you should bear a voice-

Tell me what you know!

And as the man on laudanum-

Make my fancies grow!

Moon, oh! Courageous Moon-

For every night, you conquer day,

Still illuminating darkness

More graciously than Sun’s rays.

Inconsequentially indiscriminate  Moon-

if you could fill me

with your essence

then I shall truly write Apollo’s poetry

and not merely leave impressions!
