If the Sun Goes Down

If the sun goes down
Maybe the moon will come up
If the sun goes blind
Maybe the moon will close its eyes

Defying the lion in its own den
Trying to catch a caught antelope
A recent catch still warm
Surprised by a wild roar

Stupid life stepping on other's toe
Smiling in scare being such a fool
The paths that are fetched -in flight too
Dear life save yourself -fly

No intention in ignorance
In knowledge responsibility taken
Things we would not know
In knowing maybe avoided
