put a gold star on my chart for eating my peas and carrots and saying Please and Thank You then placate me with a passionate kiss I miss passionate kisses thinking about near misses other paths maybe too muddy for my patent leather shoes I'm a puddle you jump in and blame me for the splash could you write a paragraph about the pleasure loving me brings? it's a ping pong match back and forth and on the floor looking for the ball I knew it all when I was five bring back the anarchy the box of peeled broken crayons the hour on the playground with passive kids to boss around all kinds of finds frogs and magic rocks and the thrill of seeing an airplane tear through the sky pass the pecan pie I've been good. |
