My Suggestion For A New Crayon Color

Fair Puce

all the world is lower-case

all the world is lower-case
every religion, every race
the children that you put to bed
the country where you lay your head

long shadows on the bathroom floor

long shadows on the bathroom floor
because you're not here any more
they're always there, day or night
something always blocks the light

little acts

little acts of kindness
little acts of rudeness
little acts of self-aggrandizement
little acts of lewdness
