what is a blog without poetry?
Theme:
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
–
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens.
.
-1-
so important
is
a red radio
flyer
–
crusted with mud
and rust
nearby the pink
flamingos
.
-2-
it really matters
when
a red nerf
ball
–
soaked with toddler
spit
is lost in the white
rosebush
.
-3-
so pretty
is
a red
frisbee
–
glistened with sweat
flung into
the white
cherry blossoms
.
-4-
your child support
depends
on a red
bank check
–
scribbled in
resentment
inside a white
envelope
.
-5-
you need to wear Depends™
when
a Big Red sipped
in leisure
–
makes you
pee
your white
pants
.
-6-
so little depends
on
a red
proboscis
–
swollen by vodka
blown
with a white
tissue
.
-7-
who cares
when
a red
dodge ball
–
smelling of sweat
and saliva
hits you right
in the breadbasket
.
-8-
it never
ends;
the red
variations
–
both silly
and somewhat clever
posted relentlessly
on WordPress
.
-9-
william carlos williams
was
read
by many
–
so obvious
his observations
so acclaimed
by white critics
.
