When Sugar Sugar Danced In D.C. Poem by jackilton peachum

When Sugar Sugar Danced in D.C.
(420 lbs. & counting-- 1976)

When Sugar Sugar danced topless in D.C.
the neighborhood shook, cracks ran in the tarmac--
Senators on the hill hid under their desks--

Old ladies cried, 'The sky is falling!
And if she broke wind, trees toppled,
rats in the basement ran for cover!

There were earth-tremors on her belly
-- tides of the sea rolled in her armpits--
the suburbs-- Arlandria-- was flooded--

Her hair-- a great storm-- rolled through the midwest,
up to Moline and Rockford where her breasts were suns
bouncing off distant stars!

Her nipples captured the light of solar explosions--
and her hips were whole continents colliding!
What a woman!
