I watched the Moon try to murder the Sun

it snuffed it out, devoured it, hid it in a dark cloud

Who should I tell? Where should I run?

Was watching the end of the world suppose to be fun?

 

The Moon stood still, and then it panicked and ran

when it saw us all

watching it

trying to murder the Sun.

 

When the Morning comes, when the Sunsets at night

I see the Moon up there

waiting

for another chance

to

murder the Sun.
