"There is no dark side of the moon really...matter of fact it's all dark."
Lyrics from Eclipse © 2003 DUB SIDE OF THE MOON Easystar Records.
In case you haven't noticed, Big Val has pretty much taken over recently. She's in her "whimsical" space, ergo, the mermaids, green faeries and who knows what else. Big Al ain't "whimsical" at all but he has some important stuff to take care of so, Big Val is taking advantage of the situation (she's good at that). Don't get Big Al wrong, he has been suffering the persistence of lunacy for quite a long time. THE MOON is a powerful force. Her phases influence the tides and menstruation, assists gardeners, and she gives most of us full moon fever every month. Big Al never tires of walking in her light, gazing at her especially during an eclipse, making love under her and 'course moon bathing. Ancient civilizations built monolithic structures to the moon. The position of Stonehenge coincides with solstices and cycles of the moon as does the great Pyramid of the Moon in Mexico. Earthworks in the Ohio River Valley, circa 100 B.C. - 400 A.D. include an octagon that accurately marks the moon's rising. Big Al thinks Big Val goes too far but he cannot control her (nobody can). She's a lunatic too, so everybody just humor her and I'll be back kickin' mass soon!
Oh that Big Al needs to read a coupla faerie tales and have a sip of absinthe (la Fée Verte). That oughta set him straight (he's pretty straight already). Yeah, ya'll, Big Val is goin' thru a transformation, just like the Luna Moth, and it's ALL GOOD! As far as Big Val is concerned, THE MOON IS MADE OF GREEN CHEESE. Can'tcha see? Look, all ya'll have to do is put on your faerie wings and hitch a ride on a back of a Saturniidae (L. daughter of Saturn), swing by the Dark Side of the Moon and drop some faerie dust so those poor suckers down there can see. She's a sight for sore eyes, ain't she?
