peek-y at the tape from the laundry room.
the doctor said eat more lettuce
moon. so that’s what we’re tryin to do.
but it’d surely taste better with
(a stuffed pork chop dinner) or…
(cheese curds and fried peppers) or…
(shrimp dipped in butter) or…
maybe just topped off with sprinkles
of you.
box wine with no box
moon. it’s the best we can do.

gonna quarter you up
moon. and slice you real thin. and serve you
with lamb chops and walnuts and gin.
gonna pass you around

gonna stash you away
moon. and smoke a cigar. put our feet up
and smile, cuz we made it this far:
meteor.
today was a very good day
moon. and tomorrow’s still brand new. so here’s to
all days bein happy with you.

rock, paper, scissors… or flip a coin
moon. the get-away spaceship
will be here soon.
the mission was not quite accomplished
moon. which does leave incentive
to accomplish soon…
(it all hinges on Jim)
(go figure)
just for tonight

moon: they can span many moods.
very sad. very fun.
(Jim says what the heck)
