Moon Gazer

There's a shadow on the moon; sitting,
standing; we know not
Maybe a handwriting on the wall,
the gods we know have spilled
their thoughts

Crackling, cackling, flames giggling,
The portrait of Hades right over our heads,
the stars of the East have fled to the West,
the angels, seen they, a vision of death

Dancing, prancing, rocks igniting,
Rhythms of Sheol have flooded our ears,
Heave...Ho...the tears of the moon,
the thought of hope has darkened the skies
