the moon is expectionally bright tonight. I stood outside on my balcony while I smoked a cigarette (actually and surprisingly to you reader — given your likely demographic if there's actually anyone reading this, a question that for the very moment remain unanswered — a long story and not where I intended to land this evening but it involved my vape and a certain number of taps on a hard solid service to make it work each time, even though I bought a new one less than a week ago after a four-store odyssey and said taps are now a defunct solution to an upon-receipt flawed device), looked up after being outside 30 minutes earlier, saw erstwhile overwhelming ivory monuments to precipitation as now broken, humbled lavender stones, thought "well that's disappointing," turned and saw the moon.
it had that lens flare thing (there's probably a medical/scientific term for that) with a perfect consummate (v's) six-point star emanating from its center. i thought how immediate and never it looked, and i asked my phone, "hey google, how far away is the moon?"
and it told me on average about 30 earths,
and i thought,
"that doesn't seem far away at all."
