Kim Rodrigues Poet Free verse

Skies of Yesterday and Presently

saw blue peek out - yesterday.
what? you say:
i tawt i taw a puddy tat.*
i did! i did!*
and white and purple clouds,
for realz,*
can’t make this up.
and yet, today,
the sky is made of steel,
so back to
same old same old.*
at least the trees
remain in the same
bat time bat place*
and
i got you babe.*
