PLUGGED INTO THE MOON



art by Catrin Welz-Stein

Every night, a little down the road,
My village in darkness, is swallowed.
Poor farmers, are they,
Barely making their ends meet,
Can only dream of denied luxuries.

I pity them a lot, I do,
While they sneak up to my hut, they do...

Surprised are they, to see
My dwelling always illuminated,
Where did all the brightness come from,
They often whispered, agitated.

They know not, I've got my special magic shoes,
That take me up and let me borrow light,
Plugged in from the moon whole night.
