Little Kings

One summer midday

that boy in the tree tunnel

white tee, orange shorts,

sneakers crunching the gravel

the grasshopper road, and zing,

the springy bugs zing

in spontaneous arcs all at once,

raining down

and their royal form captivated

his brown eyes496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVd7oIDqQD

Boy netted one with

his cotton shirt, his basket

he ran back home

but it had been smushed

yellow-green496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuLiqRi0dn

I remember thinking

I killed a little king496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV4Z3ryFwS

The grasshopper road

he ran back and retried

walking so carefully

and gingerly this time

but it had been smushed

dismembered legs and all496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dR0NLwihA

So it was right there and then

that I realized with despair

on that hot and isolated

grasshopper road

that it was better to leave

little things well alone496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2Atx8JivI

Because I remember

I killed two little kings496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmEx99Wa3w

And they can be broken

faster than a dropped egg

yellow-green guts inside out

figured they're untouchable

vulnerable kings496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyh1e7LLob

Because I remember

my brown eyes traumatized

by their destroyed form

crushed to waste

they were supposed to be

springy bugs that zing496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgoD7kJQSF
496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvhsXnTYc2

I try to remember

sneakers crunching the gravel

orange shorts, white tee,

in that tree tunnel that boy

caught in the zinging rain

on the grasshopper road496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jmVhKSdQs
496Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GLRHochq7

I never went back

I never belonged

it's not a place for me

but the grasshopper road

never let go of me
