The Pauper's Moon

His destiny concrete
Mystic tranquility a stillness of the night's
Tranquil moon.  
Heaven's nature casts 
A spell in June. 
Solitude amuses a Vacant lot.
a lone pauper sings 
Tones of grievous moans.
Forget me not forget me not
The solo croons 
The tunes float on the lonesome
Moonlight stabbing at the heart
Of the ashy night 
The empty glow testing each 
Mournful note
Steady and slow rhythm
Line by line
Rhyme and rhyme
Chime in kind
Moon and shine
