Sprites in biplanes slide
Over halo hallow moons
Wolves make wails in eights

Dark purple sky stole
Four spike jewels and hung them up
Behind the mountains

Ghost cats go Ts Tss
Tracing ∀ in the blue sand
Pirate planes roosting

Sky vines recede up
Taking the fox thieves with them
Leaves creep up, left right

Swingsets snap, boughs shake
Ground is strewn with bones and lace
And peeling hoses

And broken rakes, and
Tiny green tiles, and gone
Treehouse pages burned

And peach pits, and wood
Flakes, batteries, rusted blue
Glass drops and grey wings

The ground is strewn with
Red and green ribbons, and red
Plastic ruby rings

And her injured sense
Of humor, and her torn dress
Wet with father's tears.
