The wild wonderland
of believed dreams with
good outcomes resting
in the minds of poor kids -
patted down like
little mud cakes and shaped in
old pans on culled lumber porches.
Who's ever gonna fix that rail?
No one.
Kids are busy baking cakes
and the older folks couldn't
care less..
Only those in the middle
are blinded by conformity
and set on edge by competition..
But, in this light, who couldn't surrender their darkness
of cold competition to the light and warmth of these lads?
Who wouldn't make way
for such a thing to happen?
Little lights of
hope that will only fade
into the sunset of adulthood
in due time...
But not today.
Not for them.
They have cakes to bake.
Love.. always
