It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
GEORGE: What is it you want, Mary? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down. Hey. That's a pretty good idea. I'll give you the moon, Mary.
MARY: I'll take it. Then what?
GEORGE: Well, then you can swallow it and it'll all dissolve, see... and the moonbeams would shoot out your fingers and your toes and the ends of your hair. Am I talking too much?

Barking
by Jim Harrison
The moon comes up.
The moon goes down.
This is to inform you
that I didn't die young.
Age swept past me
but I caught up.
Spring has begun here and each day
brings new birds up from Mexico.
Yesterday I got a call from the outside
world but I said no in thunder.
I was a dog on a short chain
and now there's no chain.
although tis not the season, this poem sends shivers through my body. i openly admit my slight obsession with Jim Harrison.
