The Moon


1. The mirror
Mirror, mirror
You reflect the lands and seas.

2. The Thief
She shined secretly for the thief to find his way.
Every maiden has her reasons.

3. The Separation
I cut off 10 parts of me.
They look more like you than me.

4. The neighbors
They call you ugly.
Not at all.
They're too full of themselves.

5. The Feast
For fifteen days they feasted.
She alone grew rounder and rounder.
Life is fair.

6. The Holes
Every hole, every scar has a memory.
The lump of life stories.

7. The Dance
She twirled and twirled
Until she was dizzy she twirled
And even after.
I will die the day she stops dancing
To the sonata.

8. The Dominence
A rare ceremony
Is the darkening of a heavenly body.

9. The Narrow-mindedness
Leaves are silver.
People are sleeping.
The world is such a quiet place.

10. The Chase
Come and catch me if you can,
Called the sun.
But we all know that it is a vicious circle.
One day I saw a pale face in the sky blue sky.





The Evidence


The evidence is the mess after the dust party.
He and his partner have left white trails all over the black floor.
The short and stubby white man with the sand dune-shaped head
Has been chipped from all that dancing.
His angelic clothes have holes from age.
Few notice that he is slowly breaking away.
He has smeared his life all over the floor.
