Between the Moon and Clouds
written by: Ivor Steven
They say the world is changing,
but the moon cannot stop frowning,
while nature is unerringly hurting,
beneath our fettered feet.
Between the worried moon
and the settling clouds,
I perceive a loud rumbling sigh
from beyond the deep blue sky.
In one ferocious breath, Thor decries,
“Beware of the ground’s ringleader’s lies
about the Earth’s visible demise,
and hear the crust’s cries
with your own eyes.”
