The Obnoxious Moon
This murderous lonely moon
seldom shines in the noon
you have left your habitat
now sitting on our head tight
like a reckless culprit
unveiling his wit
we're not afraid, if you arise
like a lioness that slice
for we have survived the torture
of the sun set when things rupture
look at you, the obnoxious little brat
a dash light only once in awhile act
do you think we can never survive without
whether thy light shine or not we standout

Yes
The moon does not always represent romance. It can be a harbinger of doom at times. It's refreshing to read unexpected ides put into poetic form!

I am thinking that...
there must be a legend or proverb connected with this one. Superstition can be a powerful force in the lives of some people.
Very interesting to see something of the sort from another country. ~ Geezer.
