Rise up placid moon, Through narrow bands of fiery cotton ***** From indigo to cobalt blue sky Your motion, docile and free And that sliver of silver light Your cycles are said to guide the uninitiated When you are full, they burst For you are the light of the underworld Full to new, new to full, and everything in between Your shadow hides a secret as does mine But yours is easier to reveal There will come a day when earth shall release its bond And you will be free from earthly influence Just as death will discharge this soul To meander from our earthly bodies Free from the confluence that is body and soul
