Blue Fuckin' Moon (Free verse) by lastobelus
Then he's got his god-red little footsies
hanging off the dock smelling out the little fishies
staring at the moon.
Stone-black caught in silhouette, go go go
amber glint, we are
swimming 'round a bottle, laughing
TV commercial Faulkner doom,
pass the pass the back 'n' forth ass,
the peach-girl throat caught in sudden beauty--
ok, laugh the random fractal beauty of it all:
there it is, the sweet liquor moon, same one
200-odd nights a year, 4 billion years running.
Crystalline, her sweet pie lips in big O,
falls off the dock and disturbs the great white swath
into a zillion tiny ripples and I laugh a strong liquor gurgle
into the dying throat of the world.
Crystaline floats away on her back
and the moon shadow goes still again--
then Louie
waves his "god my damn feet hurt"
tootsies in the water, playing a little game
with the blue
fuckin' moon.
