hobnob


mud stained hem
soppy shoes
frizzy braids unraveling
as small hands grip
a democratic bouquet
of weeds dressed in finery
hobnobbing with fancier flowers
no hierarchy to grubby fingers plucking
beautiful botanic subjects
serenaded by maniacal chuckling
from a totalitarian tot
subjected to the horror
of a dimpled despot
ordering dandelion executions
with a mighty gust
from puffed out cheeks
eyes crossed to watch
glorying their dissolution
