Phenomenon (for Alina)


I saw a posting by a nurse on Facebook today.
She was telling her husband how she was not
Superstitious about much, but that there was
Definitely something strange about the goings-
on with humans during a full moon.

She was telling everyone what a crazy day she
Had at nursing during a full moon. I am not sur-
prised by her statement, others have noticed an
Increase in strange and calamitous behavior 
With people during full lunar phases in the past.

One responder to her claim cited the root of the
Word LUNAtic as a prime example. If the moon
Can exert a gravitational influence with the ocean
Tides on Earth, why not throw-off some electrical
Pathways in the human brain.

Why, just the other day during the super moon e-
clipse, I noticed another phenomenon. Others were
observing the astronomical event alongside me on
The street. And each was so enthralled that not one
Of them had a smart phone glued to their ear.

Now, tell me that a full moon doesn’t wield a subtle
Yet powerful influence on human behavior.
