Looked up to see
A container full
Of goat bones
Dressed in shining
Amour
Sat cross-
legged atop
A four-letter
Word.
Planted a picnic
And crayoned
Smiling mammals
All over
The margins.
Exchange of
Cigarettes,
Blue ribbons,
Spare anchors,
Then the wane
Prosaic.
You accused
My phrasing.
Said I sounded
Like a person
With a WO
Typed in front.
