[ WotD ] Return of the Moth Woman
Abruptly waking on the wrong wing
of her chrysalis cot, Megalopygidae
is NOT having a good hair-day
I mean, just look at that bed-head!
Although ... everyone swears
our little, riding, hooded
moth-er carries more than a
scintilla of chinchilla
in those red, flannel genes
she wears to the liquor store
And soon, she will emerge
from the concrete jungle thick
with mortar n brick of brack
doing her best to avoid
every cement sidewalk crack
lest she accidentally break
Nana Bishop's back;
drawn to an eburnean
moon surreal and so near
that we are able to steal
through the keyhole, glimpses
of the Universe's lily-white rear
beneath undergarments silky
thin and sheer
