Total Eclipse Super Moon




Super Moon Total Eclipse!
The word was on everyone's lips
Millions of upturned faces
'Round the world, of all races

It was truly a marvelous sight
So many looked up with awe
The moon turned red last night
Because of the things _it_ saw

A pause for some from petty fights
They'll get back to it soon
For just a moment in their sights
Will be that blood red moon

For others who stealthily love
Its one witness from above
Just watching, nothing said
Its face blushing red

For those who fought
In anger it flushed
For those who loved
In shyness it blushed

The moon has seen it all before
This long strange human dance
This bloodied red earth of gore
And exquisite sweet romance

We saw the shadow on the moon,
Totally eclipse its light
Does it see same on the earth
As we love, yet fight?

What gives me hope is seeing the moon
After the eclipse passes
Knowing the same will be on earth, soon
Despite the many Jacka**es!
