Morning Playground

Mornings watching the sun rise. I'd drive a million miles to see it Through his eyes. I'm churning forever on This spindle so sweet. I'm digging my thumbs And fingertips in deep. If only he could taste the words That linger On my palette Like a severed shining childhood Put on display. This erotic displacement Was carefully concealed and covered up, A highway victim Bound with electrical tape.
