Moon

(before you read this, understand; it's meant to be recited not read. Also keep in mind that there is not meant to be any steady rhythm. Some would say it isn't poetry; that it's just random thoughts written on paper, but i believe that you cannot truly put a label on poetry. enjoy!) Big yellow moon; Craters create creatures On your surface. You service us, Providing A dim light For all to see. I stare In envious wonder And ponder..... I ponder the unseen, All of the unclean, Yet think of nothing. For it seems Redemption redeems Only those worthy, But worth means Little in the face Of it all. Especially In that big Yellow face Of yours Moon.

Nice style and another question as to the mysteries of the unrelenting and eternal moon.

Who needs steady rhythm? ...sometimes it just gets in the way (read D.H. Lawrence) neat alliteration and splendid imagery. Well done my friend! Best wishes, Keith
