A Blue Woman with Sticking Out Breasts Hanging - meaning Summary
Domestic Scene and Sudden Shift
The poem sketches a gritty urban evening around a clothesline: a blue woman’s hanging garments, children and a puppy, and a casual, teasing exchange that collapses into odd imagery as the moon "begins to drool." Domestic detail and bodily frankness meet sudden, dissonant notes—a chilly racial remark and abrupt lights-out—creating a compressed scene where intimacy, rough humor, and social discomfort coexist without clear resolution.
