O moon, streaming moody,
I peer up at your blank face
lit by the reflecting sun,
showing off craters and dust
but no water, nor the color red—
no shouting red-headed, red faced
red eyes, red nightshade berries,
nor red skies at night.

O moon, streaming moody,
I peer up at your blank face
lit by the reflecting sun,
showing off craters and dust
but no water, nor the color red—
no shouting red-headed, red faced
red eyes, red nightshade berries,
nor red skies at night.
