The Moon
Lightens our rooms more
Than the artificial light discovered by faraday
The Moon
Stretches her hands by night
Into our rooms
Walking my shadow upon our wall
The moon
Standing between the heavens
And the earth
Conquers the night
The moon
Conquers our African night
The moon
Captures the wicked
Slugs their legs against the tall African trees
The moon
Watches for the wise.
