96. I Named The Man in the Moon After Him

Man in the moon had the skulled face
Bragging an immortal grin
Hollowed out eyes echo city lights
Highlighting the pollution
The Hudson begs me to drown in

Beg me to drown in the velvet folds
Of the sky shaded you
Live with me forever in the clouds
Hidden in the neon glow
Of the craters like under my lashes

Anti gravity breath in my chest
Pseudo science lungs
Sky scrape my skin with your teeth
Lit up by the star struck
Moon over my heart broken skeleton
