The moon is hideous

No, the scars of the moon are not grandeur  No, the scars of the moon don’t glimmer with valor  Oh, shameful moon!  Did you go about with your tittle-tattle and let in a word for deg selv?
By D.P

No, the scars of the moon are not grandeur 


No, the scars of the moon don’t glimmer with valor 


Oh, shameful moon! 


Did you go about with your tittle-tattle and let in a word for deg selv? 


Oh, shameful moon! 


You change yourself night in and night out

Media is now a part of the surveillance state


You ornament yourself with dazzling stars 


And yet your fail to hide your scars 


Oh, shameful moon! 


I hide you with the mist from my maw 


I bypass you as I once saw 


Oh, shameful moon! 


Why must you peer down on me? 


Why must you hold your dome higher than mine? 


Why must you laugh the last laugh? 


Are my instruments of amusement that pleasing? 


Does it comfort you when the morn comes? 


To know a human with as many scars as you 


Walks this wretched earth, 


Night in and night out.
