Circus —
the
elephant’s front toenails
painted white
Ruffling, sunlit, gleaming
as if illuminated from
within,
the dead skunk’s white fur
dog so eager
to sniff another’s spray
wet nose
driving on the highway
graceful bare feet with dirty soles
from a pickup window
fit of giggling
in the corps de ballet
not one step missed
after a sip of beer,
young girl listens to the
band
then lights her lollipop
stick
