Las Gaviotas
There is a burning moon in Mexico
Love and blood go hand in hand
So deep and high, I can't let go
It rises red, It's sky crawl slow
A bulging middle with golden band
There is a burning moon in Mexico
Drunk, I watch the ebb tide flow
Where waves wash away at the land
So deep and high, I can't let go
A guitar song with black pearls so
consumed with guilt I cannot stand
There is a burning moon in Mexico
She hangs there naked, all a glow
Over an Ocean of silence and sand
So deep and high, I can't let go
In the distance, a storm does grow
Spinning eye pull, strand by strand
There is a burning moon in Mexico
So deep and high, I can't let go.

I have tried this form and have had no positive results. You
seem to have pulled it off quite well. In both form and content,
a solid ten.
