Moon War

This is as simple as it gets The truth displayed on blank pages Lies on the written ones For you, for me- the wages From fighting this war are meager And it seems that we are eager To leave this hole we are in. Can we write a new story? Nothing is happening but nothing Can prevent this unbecoming glory. Winning was never an option we Had considered in the first place. But to actually have victory Would be kind of the one we call fate. This is as complicated as it gets Food turns to drink in moonlight But still we cross our fingers and Hope that a beam could be our spotlight.

Meager wages, food turning to drink, crossed fingers. You have some great visuals here. I really enjoyed this piece. You drew me in with the title and the gravity of the moon held me captive.
