Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut

.. 

Moon snickers. She’s got
a secret, a milky
way of char-
stone chewing up this
dark sky. She’s all butter
-fingers and mounds of moonbeam
…….chuckles
twix(t) the 3
musketeers sneers
of Orion’s belt notch trio.

It’s pay day somewhere
up there
on Mars;
(good)bar’s open
to suggestions,
……..questions,
and the 5thavenue
shopping window
sparkle
……-spray of crackled stars.

 

..
Not goin’ anywhere for awhile? You’re gonna wanna lay a finger on this prompt – Lil’s over at dVerse Poetics. 🙂

    I love your lunar magic and cosmic glitter , De! I particularly love:
    ‘…She’s all butter
    -fingers and mounds of moonbeam
    …….chuckles’
    and
    ‘…the 5thavenue
    shopping window
    sparkle
    ……-spray of crackled stars’.

  8. This is glorious! So playful, so magical. You were made for this prompt – or vice versa??

    Just realised I have totally overdone the question marks in my last couple of comments. Put it down to a candy overdose…!!!!!?????!!!!!

  9. Love this… it’s hard to say anything else than sweet… maybe sugarushed works…

    a chocaholic frolic – as bubbly as an aero with these wonderful lines
    “She’s all butter
    -fingers and mounds of moonbeam
    …….chuckles”
