HOW CAN I PRETEND: PART 4
HOW CAN I PRETEND ?
PART 4
Innocence, zest, curiosity
remain intact protected
crimson hymns I earned
when Divinity composed
a skin of cheetah brown
amused at a white chin
where my masculine’s
fuzzy beard ought to be
HE raucously laughed
aloud at my horrored
‘Don’t You Dare !
O Great One !’
Then asked ‘What will you do?’
I meekly replied : ‘How can I
pretend ?’ which was instantly
rewarded with a claim of
‘That’s my Girl !’
To leave forever this
evolving Globe of
potentiality instructing
from another constellation
how Hearts are to commune
with robots or skullcaps
or election sweaters putting
forward theories of Peacock
Republics, my foot ! a cosmic
activist gone haywire
I turn or wait or patiently
watch your angled angst
royal regret, pea pleads
weak emojis, boastful
escapes to water caverns
You have to do what I
did to earn your colours
true without Pretence
‘s’ replacing mishap
fourth letter here as
four is my number true
Presence slithers like
a Plumed Serpent
she steps forward
dualing with Pretence
coffined cold
