"The glacier knocks in the cupboard, The desert sighs in the bed, And the crack in the teacup opens A lane to the land of the dead."

Pink Moon


In honor of this month's moon, Nick Drake's sweetly melodious and vaguely threatening song:

"I saw it written and I saw it say
Pink moon is on it's way
And none of you stand so tall
Pink moon's gonna get you all"

As an aside, because poor Nick Drake was gone long before my time, this song reminds me of the moment I realized I was finally the target demographic for car commercials
Whatever the case, let's hope the pink moon lets us off the hook this time.
