Caribbean Supermoon

The sun is under the earth
The earth is under the sea
The sea is under the ship
And the ship is under me.

Over all the fair, full moon:
Over Wissahickon Creek,
Van Saun's Brook, Whitewater Gorge
Hudson's mighty canyon,
Throgg's Neck and Whitestone,
Maspeth Creek and Fresh Pond,
Bestevaer's Killetje.

Warrior maiden, born this day,
Take up your sword of discrimination
And sever the bonds of illusion
That I, even I, even I
May merry meet by moonlight
Until the rising of the sun.
