Transitional

the moon grins at the stars and rolls over

into the day, seizing it from those who 

take it for granted like so much other stuff

they do not understand...  creatures from 

the underground, long since abandoned

by mankind roam the caves and caverns

of the forgotten land that was once the 

home to Eden's first couple...  a weird

pair who wore no clothes during the day

covering themselves with leaves at the

first sign of darkness...  their children

multiplied like rabbits who were in debt

to those who no longer hunted them...

a tale of innocence washes over them as

if they were bathing in a stream, and the

cool waters cleansing their pores, removing

all of earth's toxins...  youth cried foul

because they are too young to vote but

pay not attention to politics as the say it

is all rather boring, trying not to confuese

each other with the news caster of the

same name...  a pale day arises out of the

dawn from which it was born, looking

around to see who decided to join her.
