~ THE HOLLOW MOON ~

{the questioning}

~ THE HOLLOW MOON ~

                      "The moon was ringing like a bell!"  ~ Neil Armstrong (Astronaut)

Oh enigmatic moon, within and below thy three layered crust
Lay amazing answers, for man's most inquisitive minds
That you hail from an age even older than the earth
No liquid on your skin, but running deep within
With no rotation of your own, you and mother dance
Yet somehow susceptible to the deepest moonquakes
While this perfect ballet, 'twixt you and mother earth
Leaves my heart filled, with a great questioning ~

Are you not, our natural satellite?
Have you been purposely placed in our sky?
With the god's great precision and eerie foresight?
Here as a guardian, shining your many anomalous lights?
And "The Shard", that great obelisk that towers as a sign
That there may have been some kind of life
Walking your glassy decks, well before humanity arrived...

Oh enigmatic moon, why are you so radioactive?
Have you traveled to us at such great speeds
As to make your roads glassy,
With stunning metals that make up your chassis?
You bathe us, in such glorious comfort each night
And eclipse with such magnificent awe and delight
That we have not even bothered 
To raise these questions....

Now that it is known that our moon is hollow
I fear all the world will quiver tomorrow
But fear not, for with this new barrage of information
Shall thrust upon the shoulders, of each and every nation
A symbiotic song, that whistles a most familiar tune
A new race of explorers, from the dark side of the moon...

Rare earth. Without a moon this size we’d most likely not be here. How bizarre. Great write Tony.

I watched an episode of ancien aliens that brought to light this very... fact?? That the moon is hollow and placed exactly so...with ...intent. I was unsettled for weeks after watching it Tony...is NOTHING what it seems? I suspect one day we may find out but possibly not while we draw breath. I can't imagine how you managed to gel this idea/ possibilty/ fact into a work.of art...then I thought again and realised what it was...talent my friend X

Hey MARION ~ I'm gonna have to look for that episode.....I WILL find it, I have it on standby.....But YES!!.....many astronauts have come forward about it.....also saying stuff about things that they have seen and encountered on the face of the moon...Like "The Shard" I mentioned...it's a giant obelisk, perfectly shaped, couldn't be a natural occurrence....not unlike the one from the film "2001 a Space Odyssey ".....anyway, I don;t want to scare you or anything....but there is a LOT going on around us that cannot/will not remain hidden for much longer!!....thanx so much for sharing with me girlfriend!!.......be well!!......T xo  :  )

cool write Tony! the moon is interesting, however I believe it is a symbol of coming up short of eternal as it has to reflect light and can't generate it's own! a hollow goal! all the best my friend! great conversation generator!..........Jim

Hello Tony, I love your nod to this theory of the moon being hollow and ringing like a bell. I always find the moon an eerie yet fascinating subject. I have often considered what is on the dark side of the moon. Some people believe the moon was purposely placed for the benefit of the earth. That it is custom built by another life form. Maybe they watch us from the dark side ? 

Loved the closing lines to this piece, gave me goosebumps and then made me think of pink Floyd :) 

Thanks for the food for thought with this exceptional write 

Your happy to know you friend
