April 26: Poem 25

My Head is the Moon

By M. Desing


My head is the moon,

A round orb

Where the meteor of cancer

Has left a deep crater.


My head is the moon,

A senseless rock

Circling in a cosmic dance

That has no discernible end.


My head is the moon,

A thing of mythic significance

Where ancient rituals

Call forth its power.


My head is the moon,

But it’s no moon.

It’s a space station.


And somewhere,

Roger Waters flow into 

a sea of tranquility 

on the dark side 

of the moon.


Notes


Wow but I am cheating a lot. I missed yesterday, even though I wrote a poem for my class and spent all day talking about poetry... but never posted one. Furthermore, I'm breaking one of my rules - this is a poem I wrote maybe two years ago, but realized how much I love it (especially the last stanza) and decided to post it despite my pledge not to do that. Meh. It's my blog. Whatever :)
