BAD MOON RISING

THERE IS A BAD MOON RISING. A DARK NIGHT. A STORM.

BEYOND MY GRASP, A STAR ONCE SHINED,

WHERE THE SUN IN THE SKY WAS BORN.

BENEATH MY FEET THE COLD WET EARTH,

NO PLACE TO REST MY HEAD,

A MAN THEN APPEARED, WIPING ONLY ONE TEAR,

LATER CUASING MANY OTHERS TO SHEDD.

WHERE LIGHT ONCE BRIGHTENED,

THE NIGHT NOW FRIGHTENED,

A ROSE SLOWLY WITHERED AND DIED,

AND THE MAN DISAPPEARED,

TAKING ONLY THAT TEAR,

BENEATH THE BAD MOON THAT RISES, HE HIDES.
