Moon Talks

I shunned away 

from the clatters of the snoopy,

 talking ceiling 

and turned to the moon instead, 

"What is it like up there?" 

and he said, 

"Well, you see, my dear, 

we are, quite relatively 

the same in a certain peculiar kind of way.

 Essentially, 

water is a vital source of life's elixir

 just like how Earth revive one's residers to survive. 

Yet somehow, concurrently, 

we tussled through several moonquakes, 

raining meteorites

 under such hellish fiery heat." 

well, honestly, 

that sounds pretty hellific enough 

for my soul 

to uncurl from this old,

 rotting heart

 and that is exactly

 my kind 

of heaven

 -a.
