Moonquake
It rocked the lunar surface
Like a bomb went off.
It tore through landers and
The different flags left up.
Below, the earth
Could only watch
As their single moon
Split into two
Then, slowly drifted
Out of orbit
Leaving us to bake
Or freeze dependent
On our latitude.
Very interesting concept, to write about the disaster, but use a different stage (the moon). I hesitate to say I like it (in the light of the tragedy itself) but I really do like it.
