Krista Detor, Noardewyn: 'Anemic Moon' (Cover Their Eyes)

Uploaded by: KristaDetor
Video Description:
"When my daddy was in prison, he looked out the bars, and there it was ~ the moon ... not La Bella Luna that hits your eye like a big pizza pie, but rather a pale, wan, sad, sickly thing ~ mocking him in his predicament.
And thus was born 'Anemic Moon.' I took his poem by the same name, and revised it for my own purposes ~ in memory of the boys that talk pretty and leave you standing in the doorway, in between the light of dream and some anemic moon..." --Krista 'Anemic Moon' (Cover Their Eyes) Lyrics: You talk

g out my door and I know that I can't bear to think of you anymore. http://www.kristadetor.com/covertheireyes Venue
