A Moonmilk Song (For Jhon)

[Pandable]

every man and woman is a star
and he was right when he said
that all the stars are dead
are dead now
are dying
are lying
in dust and rot and centuries of ruin

was your love unrequited?
are you watching us now?
through a nebula of obsidian
viscera - stardust - and obsidian clouds
speak to me. breathe.

a moondrenched black hole supernova
bathing in polar light...

"the black sun has risen now,
risen now, risen now
the black sun has risen now
and taken you home..."

must we look to the past to see we have no future?
oh, must we look to the past to see we have no future?
