Blueness
Blue moon
shrill dandelion and
a pocket of fallen teeth
happen once
in a bruised moon.
The noon when mother
sugarcoated
her skin
when civil rights movement
painted its face-skin white
commedians dell'arte
locked jaws
a pocket of fallen teeth
shrill dandelion and
a bruised moon
happened once
in a blue noon.
Mother painted her body
blue commedians dell'arte
sugarcoated civil rights movement
a pocket of fallen teeth and false
painted mouths
obliviated
blackness&whiteness
af ter mother died of
blueness, sugar and shrill stupid
shows.
