Goody Gumdrops felt like
He was very much like
The circles he'd drawn to get
His dried out pen to write.
He whisper-wished for funny fright,
for whooshing broken record wind.
The arrogant man's words
were carefully chosen
according to his
imagined retelling of
what he said
by whom he said it to
to someone else.
The action
and
The seeming
of the action
And the recognition of the seeming.
The cast
The costumes
The curtain call
A glorious performance!
Wow!
From nursery to nursing home,
Snails leave a trail of slime...
The Q-Tips in my ears always go
"WoWoWoWoWoWoWoWoWoW"
