Man Off The Moon Poem by Douglas Scotney
Man Off The Moon
Well-kenned in Scotland
is that pipes on bagpipes are called drones.
With sound cause, 'drone'
is a name for the whole caboodle,
which is appearing in Scottish political cartoons,
hovering in the air,
spying on lewd conduct and illicit behaviour.
At the end of the day its bag is so gross,
it floats, headquarters-bound
barely clear of the ground,
or big-bounces off it like man off the moon,
with each hit, expelling a droneful tune.
" ken: verb Scottish•Northern English know" you would have saved ME time by typing " well-known" ! ! ! ha ha. caboodle: " noun: the whole number or quantity of people or things in question" i don't fine a definition for " gross" which (for me) fits here. but, all in all, i like the poem. it looks like someone used a healthy heart as a target for spears! ! bri :)
At the end of the day its bag is so gross. Drone sounds amazing. Moon is musical for man. Technology has developed a lot. An interesting poem is beautifully penned.10

I agree with you about the boring sound of bagpipes. They turn me off.
