Moonshine

distilling it takes time,
           then
           heat
       and
    then
   a
      long
           cool
               coiling
          passage
          and

   at the very last
     something to
        catch it
             in

Hi Ed...I like my moonshine from the sky and my beer from grocery store. Enjoyed the shape of the poem...could almost see the process through the form as well as words.

That coily bit that formed with your words,
is known in these parts as the "worm"

A copper coil that is sometimes the only ( but crucial) part that can be spirited away, before the "revenuers" find your still.

Enjoyed this Ed
