• The words I leave you behind
    are unsure of which way to go
    They drip
    and run
    across the page
    down
    Refuse to stay in place
    Lift off the paper
    Dance on your eyes
    in your hair
    Laugh in your ear

    Take after their creator
    Mother dear
    watching her children
    roaming the playground
    muddled minds that do not grow
    develop
    without my consent
