I don't fully understand the last 2 stanzas. Perhaps they refer to events unknown to me and most readers. But I do like the poem.

The first four stanzas are entirely comprehendible, and I especially like the way you used the moon as a character. The entire poem is a single sentence, a form I usually don't care for because it can run on into incomprehensibility, but you've divided it into very short stanzas that nevertheless transition to each separate image smoothly. This makes it work well for me.
