Moonstruck Blues

By Frank De Canio

Moonstruck Blues

(after the solar eclipse)

It’s not enough to peep into a room
to watch some couple making love and swoon;
we now wear special lenses -- va va voom!
so we can safely watch La Luna moon
the sun before they start to copulate.
Of course, the fact that it had been announced
to half the world that both of them would mate,
so we can all watch Sunny boy be pounced
upon, compromised a sunny outlook
for the amorous enterprise. Ah yes!
Tiresias watched Athene when she took
a bath in the lake completely undressed.
But he paid for it. With special glasses
we now can defray that fate. But sex needs
privacy and ways to deal with asses
who butt into affairs that Nature breeds.
But the solar system’s mother is bright,
and after throwing shade, she dimmed the light.
