I Was Biking In The Evening Today Poem by Ravi Kopra

I was biking in the evening today
I gazed in the sky and saw
beyond the tall trees
a huge moon in the sky
It looked very heavy
not rising as if falling
down under its own weight
yellow and hugely bright
it could not hide its pocked face

One cannot hide ugliness
I kept wondering how true
women look more beautiful with make up
in the shade of evening or at nights
and not too close but at a distance
like the mountains in the spring all green
but full of running streams, rocks, boulders
bears, boars, lions, leopards each one of
them could gobble you up alive

Well back to the beaver moon tonight
a month after the harvest moon
It is close to the earth and looked
so fat and heavy, I thought
perchance if it couldn't bear
its weight and fell on the beach
between Venice and Punta Gorda
where mudden truken people live
waving their confederate flags
what would we call their city
moony city or a looney city
and what would we call the USA
with the moon sitting on the beach
the land of the loonies! Sure?
