Summary: I've just written this after a very weird night - having read it back to myself it makes no sense, but thought I'd submit it and hope for feedback. ;0)




O Melancholic moon of cheese,
light my way,
to safety.
Lustrous satin nights like these,
remorseless,
devastate me.
Wrapped in polythene
I suffocate before day's dawning -
cruel melancholic moon of cheese
lay murdered by the morning.

As sunlight warms my body
I breathe in the taste of rebirth -
sweet lunar child,
the hybrid caste
of dreamscaped space and earth.
