Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

The Moon Is Made of Cheese

Sometimes I wish the moon
was cheese -- for those hungry
nights of unclaimed desire

subdued somewhat with a late
night snack -- now I am really
talking crackers...

as the heart is never appeased
long, by glob of jelly
or a dab of peanut-butter

Truth needing more than ice cream

brand, what will be remembered

as the cone of Democrats' Melted 
Glory --

Gershon Wolf January 25, 2025 at 8:17 PM Ignoring the whole point of the poem, here. That said, this heart is comforted by those dabs of peanut butter at night --- BUT the head is angrier than ever for giving in to temptation. ~ Gane Ing Wait Joseph P. DiMino January 25, 2025 at 8:23 PM Yep, I also wear my temptation. Tougher with age to control. Thank you, Gershon. Have a great weekend my friend.

DiMino January 24, 2025 at 4:58 AM The moon is an endless mystery motivator -- cheese and wine in moderation of course. Blessings my friend. Thank you.
