Let these words suffice

Let these words suffice
If these words suffice
Should these words suffice…
Would you take the moon
Put her in a jar
Screw down the lid
(Till she squeaks)
And place her on a shelf
In a far place
Too high to reach?
Then why do you pickle your heart?
Do you worry
For the safety of the moon
Her sweet silver?
If God has placed
This beauty here
Inside my mind
Who am I to grumble?
