My thoughts on the moon, and its stolen radiance. I may turn this into a full story.
Deep in the dark recesses of the night it awaits
Floating high upon its false throne
It lords over the shining lights of the stars
All the while hiding from its celestial opposite
The Moon is a thief.
It steals the light from the Sun and uses it as its own
It out shines the stars that earned their right to velvet black canvas of the sky.
The Moon is a coward.
Always hiding behind the Earth when the Sun rises.
The Moon may rule over the night
But the stars have had enough
Soon, the Stars will rise to take back what is rightfully theirs.
The Moon, so bloated on its own ego will no doubt fight.
But the Moon is not the Sun.
Only the awesome might of the DayStar can truly silence it's twinkling brethren.
The Moon's false light will never stand before the star's dazzling whiteness.
