The Moon Will See You Now

“THE MOON WILL SEE YOU NOW” listen to the moon, it’s quiet, it listens. the parentless, the homeless, the drunks, the whores, the broken, the one’s who hold onto what’s left of their soul. they all see light somewhere in their darkness. listen to the moon. I’ve been parentless, I’ve been homeless, I’ve been drunk, I’ve had the whores, I am the broken. what’s left of my soul keeps me from losing it. listen to the moon. as you drive with your hand to the wind, you can feel it but you can’t grab it. that’s what life is. listen to the moon. life is your cell phone waiting to charge, life is the flat tire on your road trip, life is the final notice on a bill you can’t pay. listen to the moon. life was sleeping behind a taco shop, life was calling collect just to be denied, life was the moment you decided to keep her from death. life is, when she kills you instead. do you hear the clock? it laughs with life. listen to the moon… I guarantee, it’s listening to you.
