the baseball bat痴 crack
tells of the boy痴 travels
but it wouldn稚 be able to tell much
about the boy痴 crush;
you can ask his backpack about it
that letter was, after all, never delivered
simply carried with no purpose
but to color his cheeks.
the boy痴 shoes
are weathered with time
time, after all,
does not take age
but experience
and how many small orangish ball monsters
you致e pounded with a baseball bat.
