What are you, twelve years old?
The smell of cherry blossom perfume
and dreams
So many things I wanted to ask you
In twenty-thirteen,
we knew not our own faces but
pop sarcopha-guise
factory priests pressed
Christ-crackers into small hands,
soon balled in hell-fear
in “the world,”
Enter the Wonderful World of a deluded boy committing 'Pokey Bum Wank'.
You took me by storm
Broke my resistance
What boredom this life is!
Well then, shall we seal
it with a kiss?
No? Why desist thou
with tracings, touches?
Is not congress bliss?
And why dost thout hiss?
taking the fun
out of skidding on loose
rock
fast or slow, what will save you?
A novice inference

Peace medal initiated by Alfred Nobel
on the earth, for peace only to prevail
a symbol for fraternity in the world to grow
Nanny had unwrapped
The christening gown
Handed down through
We sat becalmed on the cold ocean
I wished to see the waters move
The world’s smallest basket lies tucked away
Inside a jar for field-trip wide open
Eyes of wonder to chew on, settled in
The drooling smiles of truant minds like most
