Doodling hearts on my patella,
coasting along Barksdale Boulevard,
believing in miracles and unicorns,
after a runaway rainbow -
I am a dreamer
true to my nickname.
He was supposed to bring chocolate
but settled on coffee, instead.
While I was impersonating the equator
instead of remaining purely polar.
By now he's alone in bed
feeling like a run-over possum
too shattered for band-aids
or Snuffleupagus hugs.
You're just a pixel
... right now...
Can you really forgive me so easily
with your heart on MY sleeve
and my name tattooed
across your fragile wrist?
Is this really so insignificant
or are you trying to pass dinosaur
fossils off as gigantic, ancient
puppy dog paws?
Writing challenge using the words: rainbow chocolate possum boulevard patella dinosaur equator wrist snuffleupagus pixelBut also, completely true.
