What truths does the moon tell?
What secrets does he hide
In the back room, whisked away
When the light subsides?
Does he slyly smile
And whisper through the clouds?
Does he broadcast through
the air
Like a peacock crowing, loud?
Does he beam like a feline
With feathers in its fur?
Does he howl with the
wolves
At the tales he's seen
and heard?
Not the regular rotation
Of
peoples' late-night antics
But
weighty lunacies
Super-charged, gigantic
What truths does the moon tell?
What does Neptune know?
Does Uranus hold your secrets
tight?
And why do stars explode?
