DO NOT MISS THE MOON, WHILE COUNTING THE STARS Do not be carried away by the deceit, Of an oozing chant of a back palm’s stew; For the meat that source and house it, Will slip and off it will drift like dew; So, do not miss the sun, While counting the smiles of the stars, Kafkaesque! Most magic moments oblique, The conscientiousness to...
