Sweet Kid
The lemon drop child
looked at the world
through sherbet fountain eyes.
Her sour cherry lips
spouting black jack words,
whilst her mind was an
aniseed twist.

Her rhubarb and custard complexion

Belied her treacle toffee soul
No love heart there....

In the aniseed searing of midnight
I sat drunk at the bar once again......
