I slept all day
Awoke with distaste
And I railed
And I raved
That the difference between
The sprout and the bean
It is a golden ring
It is a twisted string
And you can ask the counsellor
And you can ask the king
And I'll say the same thing
And it's a funny thing
Should we go outside
Should we go outside
Should we break some bread
Are you interested
And as I said
I slept as though dead
Dreaming seamless dreams
Of lead
When you go away
I am big-boned and fey
In the dust of the day
In the dirt of the day
And Danger! Danger!
Drawing near them was a white coat
And Danger! Danger!
Drawing near them was a broad boat
And the water! Water!
Running clear beneath a white throat
And the hollow chatter of the talking of the Tadpoles
Who know the outside
Should we go outside
Should we break some bread
Are you interested

thanks joanna
my body pulses with grief
how can i expect
to find any words of my own
........................................
a small spark
my little bean
