rubbery stretch of
imagination,
color: teal blue.
a head of helium.
convex face interspersed
with a thumb-size patch
of ice (the sun).
teal blue sight, sees
lavender grey clouds.
aqua blue sky sees a
gorgeous accent, to the
inevitable ceiling of its
height.
blindingly smooth slides,
and drifts--humoring the
wind to stifled whistles.
then the slow deflation,
the sky's naming process--
a letter at a time.
the ground's map promising
the burden of objectified
detail more and more.
till a teal blue balloon
got stuck to the antler
of a seasoned oak tree.
clumsily waving its full
name in a breeze.
incessantly asking:
what's in a name?
the little boy who let
me go, had one too.
what's in a name?
