he has no idea

he has no idea

A Poem by kimpetersen13kp

summer afternoons
white school shirts
and stripped schoolboy ties
grey pants and Buccaneers
Tupperwares
and the idea that this will hold
white chalk and blackboards
I ask him
what did your mom pack for lunch
he says
polony or something
do you want to share mine
our thighs are touching
his Nike bag
on his lap
peanut butter blonde curls
eyes the colour
of acrylic craft glue
he has no idea
