I can't handle the moon.
Stars are too wide.
Grass is nibbling into my flesh.
Night breeze is moving
strumming a soft guitar
I drink the night sky in
like a chilled black wine.
It soothes and comforts
and is nowhere near to me.

I am safe out here.
The living hand of the master
has such a cold and desperate grip.
This night.
It's squeezing the life from me.
One last dying breath to the stars.
The distant and neutral night.
