Being inexhaustible, life and nature are a constant stimulus for a creative mind.

You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.
~Ray Bradbury


Serene orb, shrouded
by veils of cotton-candy fog
terrestrial secrets keeping vigil
with the whispers of the stars
Her face is pockmarked,
porous craters full of faults
yet she does not
judge beauty by another’s eyes
Her voice softly
caresses the earth,
her whispers scented
like gentle mid
summer nights
Nights swarms her like plagues,
yet still she is hope

I was inspired, one night, by the moon. This is also for the Interlochen Fiction contest.

Thank you. Honestly, I don't get it either. I reread it, and yeah, the last line doesn't really make sense. I'm not really sure what I was thinking there .l.

I didn't get it. I thought the imagery was stunning, but the last line was confusing :P
