Call me Moon Shine

Call me Moon Shine

A Poem by Colette
"

Altered word challenge for the Almost Dead Poets Society

"

 

 

call me misfit     or call me Miss Fit

call me crazy

never heard anyone call me

lazy

 

i’m the Little Engine that could

i’m CG with a double e

i’m Coco     with soft marshmallows

touch me     you’ll see

 

got ‘em linin’ up at the kitchen counter

waitin’ on me

 

i’m Cinnamon Toast     ala mode

in an otherwise humble abode

 

i don’t boast, but

i am confident     others feel malevolent

i am Calico

i am independently sufficient

 

i’m a Leo     a solitary lion

i’m not perfect     but, i do purr

 

with me, the lines blurrrr

 

 

i don’t see in black & white

i have technicolor vision

i can disinhibit you, and afterward

i will disinstallation you

 

unremember you

 

when i get hungry again

i’ll set out for a new kill

a new thrill, cuz

i’ve got that androgyny of spirit

 

i’m a black man in a white girl’s body

you don’t understand

you don’t need to

i misintend     and you disintend

 

i am The Artist CG

i’m a product of the Prince generation

i spit words     like     Controversy

i throw paint     like     I Wanna Be Your Lover

 

if you drink me

you might feel faint

 

i am Moon Shine

they don’t make it like mines no mo’

 

i am part of Quantum physics

i tell a story     only the brave will listen

i am Poet CG

get to know my history

 

i got good energy     up in here

in my tree house room     with the birds eye view

but, their negative energy     out over there

leaves me unslumbered

 

leavin' me feeling like i wanna disencumber     myself

from him

and her

and their hell

 

so i can disburden myself

disentangle this mess

disembarrass your a*s

from the ugly face you put forward

 

i am the Photographer Colette

i see beauty in all

it’s not my fault if you fall     short

on your aromatic unibalm

 

 

 i will reside in my undisturbed calm
