A freak collision, they said. The full moon now resembled a half-eaten cake. Something had gouged out its left flank, leaving the celestial giant lopsided and broken.
It didn’t hurt us. A blessing, some argued. When the fallen moon crushed Australia like a custard pie dropped from a plate, the rest of the world got lucky. So they thought.
Wolves hunted. Bats skittered. Vampires bit. The creatures of the night attacked. They were lost, you see. Lost without it. I know, for the moonlight was all that calmed me and now there was none. A werewolf forever, mayhem was mine.
Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoyed.

Crinkled thoughts attempt to unfurl
Words and letters – damn this ruination!
Divided by force, separated
Folded in upon themselves
Mountainous in their minuteness
Kissing the wrongness of the misplaced
Meeting parts of me I’d rather they’d not
Meeting the worst, as there is no best
Who am I kidding?
Crinkled thoughts can never unfurl
Thank you for reading
