The Dishonest Moon
August 11, 2014
The moon is the universal plagiarizer
Mooching off the sun's inexorable, unimaginable light
"Here," says the moon when the sun has hidden,
"I will light your lacking world with a glorious, white-hot glow that only I can provide."
Yet the dishonest moon still leaves me speechless
At the sight of its singular wonder
its awe-inspiring, humbling gaze
Isn't it funny how an illusion can be so beautiful?
