The Lunatic by macalurs(m): 7:33am On Oct 08, 2006 |
The lunatic. Losely fangs he sorely bore Ringed red eye never redder bled Cheeks hung loose and from wears worn Pale as the man in the god-damned moon By God he swore 'cos man was cursed Life lived long, option-- death far from worst For the maid that made the mad her man Was slain by the man the mad had made He still alive could not have been more insane As insane as he could never more alive been T'was time for his shadows --umbra and pen-- To for once in horror sit still beside him loom It was a dream that dreamt and never woke He was the man in the half-faced crazy moon |
