green grass of tunnel through tiles in the bath
I fall swimming through the silk of our pool
left out all summer in silent nights of blue
in the yellows of sun it’s warm and sweet
still dreaming I’m wet in the shade of day
as red balloons crash windows and I can’t be found
sister radio screams and brother bat swings hard
close my eyes in the cupboard when eric whispers my ear
telling dandelions shine gold in the kitchen
and mom breathes in the window’s light

The Abominable No-Meatman
So, I had an idea. I was wondering if Pennywise the dancing clown went vegan because he wanted to befriend humanity, what would he eat? Would there be food options for him, or would he have to starve just to be put in a better light with us humans. So I’ve created a special restaurant and menu just for him. This way, if Pennywise were to become vegan, he wouldn’t have to get creative with his dietary choices, I’ve done it for him. I’ve taken the work out of going vegan on his behalf! Here is a special restaurant and menu I made just for our friend, Pennywise!
