How did the moon get a face? Who thought it would be a good idea to tell children that there was a man, in the moon?
A face staring down at you, watching you drive home, and get ready for bed.
Who would want a man gazing from an ocean of stars?
A ghostly white face, with craters acting as moles and freckles.
The man has no body, it's just a heard. As the sky gets covered with it's black blanket and the night lights get turned on, a face appears.
Think about this, it's not right. For young children to grow up believing there is almost a human looking down apon them. I don't think it's normal.
We twist the truth of the world to make it enjoyable for children, but once they grow up, they will question the story.
