My blouse
Remnants of
Chocolate Hershey
This blouse just got washed
My poor husband

on cool march day
stamping through them in rainboots

living in a forest dark
very quickly did embark
upon a quest on an ark
Noah gave him name of Clark.

Sometimes predicts cold weather
Cutting out the worms
Rescuing the sweetest part

Or when I get my income tax money
Or when the right man comes along
Or when I find a pony

Gritty, grassy, smelly too.
You call it feces.
I call it pooh.
It is a lovely midnight blue.
