trees
March 17th, 2009
when i was little
i’d watch tv
and mum would say
(fearing my brain would rot
(and then fall from my ears and onto the carpet in a cascade of horror))
‘why don’t you go and climb a tree?’
but why would i climb a tree?
what does one do in a tree?
i could use my imagination
and say
to passers by:
‘i’m hiding fwom the spanish inqwisishin!’
and no-one would join me
or share my delusion
