The Innocent Moon

the moon believes in

fairy tales

the man whispers

in her ear

and goes to sleep early

while dreaming of

the surrounding stars

the moon is like

a little star

floating in a world

of its own

oblivious to the burning

going on around her

simply singing about the stars

and naively revolving

around the sun

the moon dances in the night

and plays through the day

all the while believing

that turning into a star

would not be the

worst type of

corruption
