Month: December 2010

the city looks pretty in lights
moon. snowflakes and shoppers and
Christmas tunes.

use you to put on a shoe
moon. use you to open a can.
use you to lasso the twinkling stars
and boomerang into our hands.

ghost of Christmas past
moon. wearing fishnet.
and hat pins.
and missing a boot.

rough enough, tough enough, rich enough
moon. all the pretty, pretty girls
and you.

if you couldn’t be the moon,
moon…
what would you do?

caught us a fallin star
moon. but the glove had a hole.
now we’re lookin for glue.

not exactly a double life
moon—we just wear different clothes
when we’re out.

(with you)

animal crackers and snow
moon. folks around here can make
drivin a zoo.

the Linda’s want you to open this door
moon. but the music’s turned scary.
and we don’t think you should.

boas and sequins and top hats
moon. and one guy in shorts
who’s not part of the troupe…
