Sadness of the harvest



it should of never had happen

ho reason is come t'dis

izza orbiduf d'planets


if we had some moons to keep warm all year

not tyrant stars that care not who we are

we'd have more room to plant and grow my dear

lunar together travelling far


i saw about moonlight 

onna inuhneh an i 

fell in luh thinkinuh


moonlight is a freak light it's a re-light not a true light mind

more moons would make the night a verdant brite-lit kind

enough for us to leave the stars and all their fire behind 


moonlight onna inuhneh

freak like an immigruh

soun like a typo luh


no true flower is too flower-like no true home needs starlight

we used to be so burdened by the laws of nature are a lie

let's chart our own course thru the universe moons at our side


love that take away erythang

ner give it back

juss wen yr ship comin in, comin in


to keep you grateful love at harvest time someone must die

death sweeps you in its wings to the re-knowing of impermanence

and leaves you high and dry unlike a tropic island paradise 


take R moons an go

grab some mo on d'way

harviss ery day
