Fallen moon
held prisoner in a puddle
stabbed
by a stiletto
that click claks
to the cruising car
offering straight
sex
(& other various
positions & passions)
to its gesticulating
occupant.
The car
leaves without her.
She shifts gum
from one side to the other
blows
& pops
a bubble
leaving the sticky mess
upon her lips
regurgitated to
blow another.
“A...cazza’n cullo! ”
she shouts at the bitter cold.
I attend
the dying moon
whispering the last rites
of a half forgotten poem
to its shattered reflection.
Returning to my room
I drink alone.
Full moon
in Milan
wandering the heavens
looming large now
smiling in my little window.

Guarda che luna Look at the moon
Guarda che mare Look at the sea
Questa notte senza te on this night without you
Vorei morire I don’t want to live
