Moon

We wear slippers on the surface of the moon
Slip slip slippy
We all fall down
Inhaling deep breaths
Exhaling stars
Every day a new start
Every night due rest
The radio burrs
Static dances
We will have to catch up
The world still turns
Though we are still
We wear slippers on the surface of the moon
Slip slip slippy
We all fall down.

  1. If I could exhale stars just once, I would feel that my life had not been lived in vain. Love the imagery here, Jae!

  2. Putting on these slippers to dance alone in the night!
    "The world still turns
    Though we are still"
    So we may as well break the stillness. Gorgeous.

  11. Like the nursery rhyme reference in this one... a tishoo a tishoo we all fall down...written about the bubonic plague..sort of a combined menacing and surreal feeling to it.
