a reprise for my muse... twilight slips the bayou charcoal man sits on verandah back to railing chouchoot between his knees boy sees gator slidin’ by makes o mouth like his mama charcoal man nods that ol caimon think you sweet meat stay ‘way y’hear? keep yo fingers on yo hands screen door flaps open lady smiles on her men folk sits in rocker pushes back sweated hair fans herself chouchoot falters to her knee she lifts him fits his mouth to soft mound rocks across darkening light music flows oola malla walla dalla charcoal man stretches long legs adjusts shirt buttons feet move to music how long boy gonna do that bebette? he walkin’ chile now lady kisses fat cheek chouchoot gives up sleepy milky smile he my baby still gonna call him t’ char soon? charcoal man smiles pleased with himself turns in direction of music say loberta oh poor loberta girl you tell me where you been lady takes chouchoot to his bed kneels by her man kisses under ear sweet spot slips half moon fingers in his allons moustique wanta eat you leave nothing for me she slips screen door open quiet like finger to red lip shhhhh the chouchoot music is soft tipitina tra la la la whoa la la la-ah tra la la la charcoal man looks to Panama hanging on nail lady passes him pair of eyes she twirls her pretty self sauce picante lives in yonder now |
