The Crunch of Peanuts

a pity party in a paddle pool
blood like geranium
flowering
blooming up and out
I'm sorry when you chose this circus
shell, that it was bowed and gangly
and its protruding spines gored you
as they toppled

While Shakespeare splashed across 
the screen--it made a print
of madness--
we drag our secrets, they trail behind
us in tails,
cans clanging against the asphalt
bottle caps cutting
the dirt and catching our ankles,

a reminding weight.

I love the tongue twister and the poetry technique that starts with an A~
Good job. I now want to laugh carelessly while eating peanut bits & and watching a circus~
