Premium Member Marco Polo Desires
your smart hat and coifed 
charcoal brows your blue
questions about how I’m 
moving through the day
have me in hand 
reminiscing
making me want you
and reminiscing

My Pet Dragon

Would I be able to keep one?
He could stay with me up in my room
Saturday morning we'll both watch cartoons
I could take him with me to school
And play Marco Polo in the pool
But what would you feed him asked I?
He'd need to fly high in the sky
If you catch one they get pretty mean
Dragons live in our wildest dreams....

through the terrestrial nightshades.

A  colony of fireflies
played blinking Marco Polo
as a pair of stoic owls,
with bulging eyes,
kept nocturnal watch
over the orchestrated night....

A fork and spoon would appear a strange thing at the dinner table in Shanghai or Beijing.
