What Moves The World Round

 



What Moves The World Round


Too long alone

Trying too hard

To be the one

Who can write


The poem that

Describes what

The people have

In their minds


A man was drinking

The venom of the night

From a deep bottle

Of dark crystal


Waiting for something

A little unusual

Like a shooting star

Or a hairy butterfly


When he heard a voice

From de bottom of the space

Saying: listen friend

Every instant people think the same


It is of food and sex

Even angels do the same

Listen carefully friend

To the concert of howls


That ascend to the moon

Annoying her every night

Not only the cats are always

Claiming for more of that


If stones could cry

For more of that

They would join the group

That thinks it's never enough


What you get of this things

Because we all need more time

Or to get a credit to get more of

What moves the world round


And when the new day was dawning

The man can heard the stones

Claiming for more of what

Moves the world round


So he kept writing

Without sleeping

Until finishing this

To publish it in the web


And got fired from his job

For went too late to work

And joined the concert of howls

For more of what you now might know
