Who’s eaten all Her Cookies & Milk

and left without thanking

The Mommy

The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:22pm

If I’m gonna be A Super Hero

I gotta dress like One —

I’m a lil’ red blood cell

on The Highway down

to Hunter’s Operation —

I’m plannin’ My Outfit

for comfort & speed:

black leggins’, black socks n’ underwear

black kicks, black Tattoo sweater —

today I bought My New Black Bullet-proof Vest

black ankle boots w’ silver buckles

in case there’s snow —

I’ll be hidin’ My Red

in those bleak corridors

& waitin’ room

STOP

The Tomato-coloured Couch 3:40pm

A Drop of Blood

looking like an old sun

stops You Dead In Your Tracks

even if It came from a bloody nose

You hurry to get a cloth

to wipe It up

as if in shame
