paper faces
I’ll make you a world out of paper & pen.
I’ll draw you stick figures
they can be your friends.
And if they’re lopsided
I’ll draw them again.
And if they’re still ugly
I’ll write and I’ll write.
I’ll crunch your world up
& I’ll write it again.
I’ll make you a world that you can live in.
Because you only like
pretty people and their paper faces.
I’ll write them, erase them
& draw you in their places.
And you’ll be the one with that brown paper face.
And I’ll turn the pencil over and start to erase.
