(referring to the recent 13th full moon of the year)

full fat moon frowns down

as earth's citizens struggle

This (maybe) can symbolise economical struggle. The moon frowning at us is a good imagery as it seems that the moon can be seen as divine. I also thought about how this could also link to climate change, pollution and other environmental destructions as the moon is made of rocks. There are machines being used which damages a lot of natural beauty of earth and now it results in us realising late what actually caused all these pollution/ climate issues. Great work!

Thank you Lavi, really enjoyed your interpretation on this poem. It was certainly about struggle and would have involved economical struggle as well.
