Howlin At The Moon, Tonight

Poem Artwork

Tonight, will be a very special one for me

It’s the night of the ‘Sturgeon Full Moon’

It is also National Homeless Animals Day

And tonight, we’ll be howlin a birthday tune

 

Ancient Native Americans of the Great Lakes

Named this Full Moon – the Sturgeon’s Moon

Since by the light of this moon, they would hunt

The Nahma,¯ while listenin to the cry of the loon

 

Today is also ‘National Homeless Animals Day’

I’ve found a few of my critters, on this very night

I was bitten by an ancient werewife, many moons ago

But homeless dogs and cats, bring me back to the light

 

And, it’s Pee Wee Wolfman’s Very Ancient Birthday, Today

I’ll be out on the lake, in the moonlight, slurpin down some brew

The fish, and loons, and wolves, and other critters, always join me

But if you’re a normal human being, I’d be stayin home, if I were you

 

(My spouse has learned to stay inside;

Until dawn’s early light, she’ll hide.)

 

So Don’t Come ‘Round Tonight,

There’s a Full Moon, On the Rise;

And We’ll Be Raisin’ Some Hell,

At Least Until Dawn’s Early Light.

 

(Or Until We Run Out of Moonshine)

 

And Let’s Just Say,

I’m Older Than That Old Jersey Devil Ed,

And Younger Than That Old Vampire, Edvard;

Both of My Brothers Still Do All Their Slurpin, In Bed!

 

 

©8-16-2008, Mr. Pee Wee Wolfman Ed

 

¯Nahma – The Ojibwa Word for Sturgeon,

The Monster Fish of the Great Lakes.

 

And My Many Grey Wolf Pals in the Great Lakes Region,

Have Now Been Removed from Endangered Species Protection;

I Sure Hope Any Politicians Who Voted Against Them Don’t Come Around,

A Wolfman Can’t Be Held Responsible, If They Disappear Before The Election.

 

Click Below,

If You Dare;

And Tonight, Beware.

 
      Pee Wee & His Pals, Howlin At The Moon

Funny how I happened to be thinking about this homeless woman I gave a sandwich to last week. I was going to write about it, and opened my email, and there you were! Homeless is the word of the day here, and I didn't know it was homeless animal day! There are a lot of feral cats around here. And there are about four people I have seen this summer sleeping on the beach by my house.-(

Hope your hear the echo dear friend, It'll be howling happy birthday back at you, but never mind fishing for Nahma, there's none left, if you throw your hook far enaugh, and have some good wolf bait on it, you might catch one of these godforsaken politicians, roast them and feed them to your wolf pals, that be a great Birthday sitting around the fire and sharing with your friends, and ridding the countryside of that politacal vermin all at the same time. Happy Birthday Ed
and many more! Jasmin Horst

Such a sad sound is their howlin'...though Rufuz had his ears perk up when I played it...if they are off the endangered list that means the Jersey Devil can eat them now, yummy...JD & he

Enjoyed the sight, great write as well my friend. Brought a smile to my face a much needed smile. Thank you for your kind review this morning my heart is still heavy as Boomer has only been gone three days...still a great void in my heart, home, and life. Who knows what joy may wonder into my life to fill this void, I know when the time is right there will be a new friend who will need me as much as I need them. Again, enjoyed the write...the den is always a wonderful place for friendship and understanding.
Blessings from Ky.
