VOX Teen Poetry: Celestial

by share

the moon is my constant
it never appears to change
formed by collision
she fills in an unexplained manner
many a hit she secures the earth
like a mother for her young,

she manages to gleam,
notwithstanding the entirety of her holes

it’s that from within the beasts torture her profoundly.
in spite of the fact that we can see the conspicuous carnage
in war
war against herself
