the skull capped crossed
..
To dream a dream with rocking robbin
Playing patter cake somberly throbbing
A little blonde knock kneed girl hop scotchen
With a boy pale blue as a lighthouse coughing
As sweet in the air fair black skin springs hot
"all days in the tree tops"
.."my momma said"
One day i will be princess, i prince
I pull up my socks pastel green like my eyes
Rainbow bowties highlight her hair up right
Chewing rope licorice in kiss chasey
We're boy friend girl friend - child space cadets
We eat the same governed cheese coloured orange
Freckles are similar but muster honest
we dream of character and four squares with snakes
time travel with frogs where tadpoles play.. carrot flowers and change
tarrot towers in place, cowards cower for state the lower class powers
shower the pages of chicken pox through hop scotch like ring around the rosie nosey smellng as bad as the desk wood that rots..
we pounce through legs like nba guitar strings
scent from cement to stool with what laugh brings
ankles like marbles carple tunneled
cowboys and indians unlanding mumbles
tin coloured breath slides big as your head
grass soo long it appears through the cement
snow globe children in a jelly bean contest
tangled like free lanterns canceled in their protest
we wonder - talking politics and whats votes
whats in the library, are we all for show
legal by binding unbound unraveled
like scrabble, monopoly shockingly gaveled
by the knees that topple, pop as we both speak
soft lullybyes shy with water taps that peek
like watering holes, the lovelist taste ever
floating like a feather, a quill split before two
a feast for the mind pure air airated like what flew
still free of attachments children floating
soaking in the summer breeze of graphetti groping
we keep pouncing pounding - drowning in each self
off the shelf - shocker exchanging pennies of wealth
pony tailed and braided, embroidered clothes shown
wrestling with interest like most people of our age
face to face, kiss for kiss we jump by the page
alone though surrounded by surroundings thrown
jitters and litter all dreams so bitter they glow
...
we drift through sand snow - always pondering "you never know"
