Ruby red slippers, rich with passionate love for you, dear state, as I search your land, grazing the colors, the life, and the mystery of weeds choking gravestones, tangling the dead. But you, dear state, yourself is so gentle. Kansas, you stretch to ****** my curls; to stroke my tender cheek with a flock of sunflowers, blooming vivid gold and a mizzle of musicality, too high, too loud for me. Your screams of country overwhelm me. Why you, dear state, never treat us to tangles of concrete nor mazes of glass? Kansas, your heaven gives me migraine.

Wichita's Chagrin
Ruby red slippers, rich with passionate love for you, dear state, as I search your land, grazing the colors, the life, and the mystery of weeds choking gravestones, tangling the dead. But you, dear state, yourself is so gentle. Kansas, you stretch to ****** my curls; to stroke my tender cheek with a flock of sunflowers, blooming vivid gold and a mizzle of musicality, too high, too loud for me. Your screams of country overwhelm me. Why you, dear state, never treat us to tangles of concrete nor mazes of glass? Kansas, your heaven gives me migraine.
