If we sought you, would you take us?
Of would you rather we stay
Earthbound and distant
To admire your beauty
From afar
Surely we could thrive though
Weightless and flying
On your rocky surface
Dwelling in our Moon-built houses...
We surely will have learned by then
If we left to live with you
How to live among ourselves
Human to human
On earth
For surely it will take our unity
To achieve a lunar city
Or the realization
That you’re already taken
By Lunarians...
If we found you had given birth
to a Lunar People,
Would we then see each other as fellow Earthlings?
A common species: Homo sapiens
Evolved from the same mush
Or a common creature formed from Earth
In the image of God?
Or will we simply perish in pursuit of you
Convinced that the bodies formed
For the temperate zones
Deserve you more than those designed
For jungles?

My collection of sometimes decent writing
Which I've left "there" for seekers to seek
Though I lack the grandeur of that Pirate King
Perhaps these pebbles can be a light
In this life, this laughing tale
