haiku the two home

[wordsaredreams]

a somali
child
WHACKS
WHACKS
WHACKS
bus pole
with his
MAKESHIFT
toy
smile

peering into the seer
a four year
OLD
GOD
BOY
BOOMS
BEATS
BLOOMS
LEAVES

ALL

IN

AWE

for where
is the elephant i've
seen him riding
bareback in dreams
unfurling petals
from trunk if not
within the
eye
worn
round
my
wrist?
