Untitled ("Then again I see every kind of moon,")

By Jack Joseph Smith

Then again I see every kind of moom, cause she lives here You know she leaves late in the morning, no matter of the season, sneaks back before each evening That is where we are in West Virgina At the beginning of the Earth We down special Where down why the universe is not afraid and comes to us Stars talk to us Before they go to Sonora, Mexico I don't know the reason, but I'd bet the farm You figure that everybody that works hard is honest And then there is the sequience of what happened before they were six

The speaker places a moon with household hours in West Virgina, imagines stars traveling to Sonora, Mexico and asks how early experience relates to honesty and hard work.

The speaker treats the sky as part of a neighborhood and ends by referring to what happened before people were six. That reference remains unspecified; the page does not establish a particular childhood wound or validate claims about a community.

The poem says 'Then again I see every kind of moom, / cause she lives here', 'That is where we are in West Virgina / At the beginning of the Earth', 'Stars talk to us / Before they go to Sonora, Mexico', and ends with 'the sequience / of what happened before they were six'.

The moon is a resident and the stars pass through on their way elsewhere; the place names are the poem's, not verified geography. 'moom', 'Virgina' and 'sequience' are typed forms.
