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 eyes745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP47SaZJYO1

Boy netted one with

his cotton shirt, his basket

he ran back home

but it had been smushed

yellow-green745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RWXe9Wki4

I remember thinking

I killed a little king745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTz50bgze6

The grasshopper road

he ran back and retried

walking so carefully

and gingerly this time

but it had been smushed

dismembered legs and all745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoo4eO9LsF

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 alone745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cB6rf2mCJ

Because I remember

I killed two little kings745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnMLgEnlO9

And they can be broken

faster than a dropped egg

yellow-green guts inside out

figured they're untouchable

vulnerable kings745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZXdBhcufq

Because I remember

my brown eyes traumatized

by their destroyed form

crushed to waste

they were supposed to be

springy bugs that zing745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj2XDIpNgh

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 road745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a6EhYxtNz
745Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSsfJyrNk1

I never went back

I never belonged

it's not a place for me

but the grasshopper road

never let go of me
