Eternal Nothingness

A dirty word 
waits for the chilling moon. 
Be aware now. I am 
going to ask the black mountain.

There was no credible 
reason, why did you wait 
so long for a chimera ?

A chaste excuse for 
seven seas. They wanted a close 
encounter with aliens.

This was spring of orange 
and black monarchs 
who have to distribute 
the gifts for hunger earth.

I cannot understand myself. 
Sometimes I am happy,
sometimes I start grieving.
