A Man Of The Moon Poem by David Rose

Considering becoming a man of the moon
The opposite of living life around noon
What difference would it make
The time of day I am awake

The night provides better cover
More like living life undercover
I seem to have fewer triggers then
That I experience during day time and again

I run my errands at night now anyway
The things I used to do during the day
Like grocery shopping and going to the bank
It's even midnight when I put gas in the tank

There are far fewer people about
And much less traffic enroute
During the day I hear car horns and phones ringing
At night I hear the leaves rustling and birds singing

The night is a more peaceful time in which to live
I'm also attracted to the solitude it can give
The night just offers more of what I need right now
I'm seriously considering making it work somehow
