I.
While you were off searching
for baubles to bring to me,
I was off scouting for bugs in the dirt--
Fairytale kingdoms in
mushroom caps, millipedes
guarding the people inside from the hurt
and all those who knew
how to sit down and wait
were permitted to witness their tiny high court.
III.
What if the princess
befriended the dragon?
What if your damsel is
not in distress?
--the only reason that
she even left you
is 'cause of this job
and this house and this stress?
II.
Yes, I'll be back if I say I'll back for you.
You are my baby and ever will be.
Just let me chew up the apple a bit for you--
Truth will not kill if it comes straight from me.
Yes, it tastes awful, but drink up. It's good for you.
Once you know pain you can float on my sea.
