The Moon Gone Orange
"the fortune of us that are the moon's men doth ebb and flow like the sea"
-- Henry IV, Part One
-- Henry IV, Part One
we are the moon people
we are the dawn people
we are the moon gone orange
the moon can be stationary and insistent
the moon can appear where we least expect
biggest when lowest
somewhere i heard of people who search for patterns
plug data into computers
develop blueprints of sky
that predict
i believe these people are dense
i believe we are the moon people
light like fairies
the moon demands the most in the morning when
our faces become round
our touch white
our gifts unnerving
our skin is dust we bequeath to each other
we are the dawn people
we are the moon gone orange
the moon can be stationary and insistent
the moon can appear where we least expect
biggest when lowest
somewhere i heard of people who search for patterns
plug data into computers
develop blueprints of sky
that predict
i believe these people are dense
i believe we are the moon people
light like fairies
the moon demands the most in the morning when
our faces become round
our touch white
our gifts unnerving
our skin is dust we bequeath to each other
