Translunaria - Atrox

Borrow my imagination for a little while.

How can I comfort you?

You say you like it this way.

Night or day — it’s the same to you

Until that day I plant mercury globeflowers in my garden and until that night

your beams make the flowers explode and spread your seeds

Comfort?

Yeah like putting plasters on a limb consumed by leprosy.

Comfort?

Yeah like sticking the head in the sand

I conjured a miserable creature for you.

A restless moonling always on the move.

It founded its own nomadic state — Translunaria

The moonling can never be seen from earth

Braiding moonbeams

How can I comfort you?

You like it this way, don’t you?

Slowly revolving a

white horizon round your axis

Your magnetism is so week, you can hardly keep the ivory tower I conjured for

you

How can I???

You say you don’t want it.

You say you don’t need it.

How can I…

?

You don’t care at all, do you?
