I slip in my skin
And grace the wet
Cement with my
Attached feet
What way will
My head float today?
I will have to run
After it quick wherever.
If I don’t it may
Be gone like my
Favorite red
Balloon and
My eyes will
Be glued;
Watching the
Dead leaves fall
Amongst their
Siblings, until
Flecks of
Rainbow snow
Come and blanket
The cracked cement.
Then my friends will
Forget my skin and
Teeth and echoed
laugh; then my
Skin will walk off
And find a warmer
Home with a fuzzy
dog and red lights and
a crackling fire; maybe
some chocolate too.
I think then I could float
and find that red balloon;
I sure hope it’s still
up there in the blue
