Waning crescent Moon,
It’s me, your love,—the loon.
You look lovely there tonight.
But you look lovely every night.
Waning crescent Moon,
I wonder if you’d croon.
If I lent you a lute.
Perhaps Pan and his flute.
This sort of ended up being a rant about Dante which I’m okay with because screw that dude.
