Hopscotch

At times, I take some prior ramblings and revise in the blogsphere. Here we go.


Hopscotch is the Savior

amulets and bird droppings
the cardinal at my door
adamant
for me to screech into the playing ground of a furrowed field

just as there is no "I"
in team (so it's said)
there's no "u" in footwork
(so it's never said)
it's fatal nonetheless

take me for what I am
big willy soft spot
rake me for what I am
some perrennial in the hour of planting
to sprout in some other year
some other texture
claiming your saviour
with a "u"
