#lollipop
a few days ago
i brought a chocolate lollipop
for a class activity.
we ended up not using it
so i kept it.
you then asked
if you could have it;
i gave it to you
and when you tasted it
it was as if you entered a whole new world.
i now buy you chocolate lollipops every now and then
because i could never get enough
of that adorable little face you make
whenever you taste one.

Do you fancy
A lollipop feast
Salivary glands over productive
Just one day of sweetness
Wouldn’t ruin much perhaps
After party was tasteful
Lingering longer than it should
Picking up a lollipop after some time
Unwrapping took forever
Hesitated to shove right into
The colour appear rather surreal
Was it used to be?
Second thoughts always ****
Stood still with a unwrapped lollipop
Thinking if We should

someday i’ll be too busy to notice the vampires
the sun wakes me up and i know who i am
maybe the chaos will always be there but
i’ll find a way to break it down into mulch and grow
pears and herbs and gardenias from what’s left of me
it takes a while to accept that the shadows matter
and i can’t pretend to know the watermelon lollipop
without the tongue that exists only to melt it away
to turn it into nothing until all that’s left is a paper stick
it might feel like freedom now but it can’t forever
i’ll pull down the curtains and never snooze an alarm again
the worst thing i can think of is writing the same poem
each day for the rest of my life and everyone knowing it
but me

___Stick girl embering,
Lollipop meandering,
Molten toffee trail.___

Crunching on a lollipop
Sends shivers down my spine
”To enhance the flavour” you say
Whatever helps ease your mind
Enjoying the sweets
Emitting a pleasant scent
While pondering of these feelings
Beating around my chest
Holding on tight
Fingers entwined
Knowing well I am his
And that lollipop cruncher is mine
But just like those hard candies
He crushes between his teeth
I wonder...
*Will my heart be just like those
Strawberry flavoured sweets?*

sweet teeth
in the presence of
candy on a stick.

I've got a lollipop in space,
she's my saving grace,
with a gentle wrinkled
grandma's face
She has the Stars on a string,
makes the constellations sing,
and wears the sun on her hand
like a pinky ring.
She's light,
a delight,
always right
with a smile that fights
the blackest of nights
and hands that cure
anyone's plight.
She sugar on berries
when the path gets scary
and filled with the void
of wicked fairies.
A dollop on top,
the cream of the crop,
the rain in the desert
where it doesn't drop....
An Illuminating Force
nothing can stop
My grandma in the heavens.... my Lollipop.

Tiptoe through forests
of lollipop trees
and play with cotton candy bunnies
Climb rock candy mountains
Jump in chocolate syrup puddles
I wear a little yellow raincoat
to keep me dry
from the cream soda raindrops
So many sweet things
live in this wonderland
Things like you
Why would anyone want to leave

You ever wanna lick a lollipop?
You ever wanna take turns licking the lollipop
With your loved one?
You ever wanna lick the lollipop at the same time
But your loved one shoves
the whole lollipop
stick and all
Down their throat
Swallows it
Asphixiates on the mere Concept
Of ever having licked the lollipop in the first place
Let alone the reality that you
You, the love of their life,
They, the victim of ultimatum
Have both licked the lollipop?
.
.
.
Have
You ever been the lollipop?

Lollipop girl
Simple, little, sugar cane doll
No one could say you did wrong
But in the bonds of your heart
You know that sugar molds.

I loved you.
What did I get for it?
Nothing but depression
I wanted you so badly
That I would beg and plead to God
Every Sunday at church
I was like a child,
Asking my mother for the one lollipop
That was on the counter at the grocery
Then I think again
After a long time
"Was it worth it?"
I then remember
That I didn't even like the flavor
It was the worst flavor
It was the worst of all
But I still wanted it
Because I was blind
I cried
Because she never bought it
And I wanted that one
I then imagined
What I would do
If my mother had bought it
With my childlike mind,
I would have been overjoyed
To merely have it in my hand
But with who I am now,
I would've tossed it to the ground
And crushed it with my heel
This is what you have done to me
Feel better?
Me neither.

Roly poly helicopter
Spinning and toppling on a splatter of pink liquid paint
The sharp sound of blackberries and the taste of an oboe
Under the neon night sky glinting with frozen lollipops

Rock candy
that’s what you are,
Hard in my mouth,
I let your sugar melt
and coat my tongue.
*******
Liquid syrup
Slurp and swallow,
Twirling the stick
twist and lick
Let your tip
pass through my lips
I’ll taste the kiss,
and your juices sit
In the smoothness
of my cheek.
Slowly
you grow soggy-soft in my smile;
Mmm, satisfied.
