Ode to Luna

From The Night of Two Moons,

a play performed on EquestriaMUCK on August 20th–21^st, 2012.

Luna, Luna, Luuuna, Luuuna!

Pinpoint in the firmament! (Pinpoint in the void!)

Child of revolution, fount of elocution

Shade of tenebrosity, crux of curiosity

Luna, Luna!

So! How the beauty of her night infiltrates!

Blots out the gleam at the back of my eye

Leaves me no steam, replaced by a dream

No tears to cry, only sleep, sleep...

Woe! How the marvel of her stars makes me reel!

Pitches me up into endless ascent

No way to land, no wings to command

Time to repent in the deep, deep...

Luna, Luna, Luuuna, Luuuna!

Pinpoint in the firmament! (Pinpoint in the void!)

Queen of arbitration, knight of constellation

Champion of knowing, magus everflowing

Luna, Luna!

So! How the brilliance of her moon strikes the soul!

Woe to the foal who would halve the whole!

Heavenly face, perpetual grace

No finer role, or so stark, stark...

Woe! Would I ever know perfection so fine!

Round as a pony before being born

Light in the black, no contrast thee lack

Miniature morn in the dark, dark...

Luna, Luna, Luuuna, Luuuna!

Pinpoint in the firmament! (Pinpoint in the void!)

Luna, Luna, Luuuna, Luuuna!

From chaos we have come, to chaos we are sent

But she has pierced the firmament.

Pure emptiness she has destroyed! (Pinpoint in the void!)

So is her night sky employed! (Pinpoint in the void!)

So through her works we simple beings sit here overjoyed.

(Pinpoint in the void!)
