Why the Sun Sets

If you ever took an American literature course in grade school, and you probably have, then you will be familiar with the units about America's cultural heritage. You know, those Native American legends that describe natural phenomena in the ancient natives' terms of thinking? Well I wrote my own. It's actually a double whammy, because the whole legend is Why the Sun Sets (Or- Why There Are Eclipses) / Where the Morning Dew Comes From. Here goes:

One night Papa Sun took his viagra and was feeling pretty horny. He noticed Mama Moon bent way over sweepin' under the table. Well Papa got way behind her and took her anal virginity. That's why the sun goes away at night and you can only see the moon (or why there are eclipses; you make the call). Mama Moon wept. She cried to hard the ground was covered with her tears. That's where the morning dew comes from.
