Ginger Ice Cream(with a flake)


Oh it's you
You're late
Your Late
Never mine
Yaw late
Pitch early
We shouldn't be out
Past September
Last cut of the garden
It'll grow slowly till spring
Six weeks of the summer
And all he can make
From Ginger ice cream
And a box of flakes
Till the calendar turns to October
And the queues fade to pairs
In any vaque order
Throw away the left cones
And secure the hitchlock
Last cut of the bristle
And last look at the cap
In the summer he reclines
But in the winter recedes
To vansish in moisture
Late into the year
Dark calls and he signs in
Not lucid but attendant
To break like a tide
Over trances of black
(5 months on)
Till a temperate clue
Shows a lateral bud
As he grasps for his cap
Then scratches his chin
Light flung into past
To revive his plan of survival
Who causes his rage?
To subside inculcate
As he reaches for ice cream, ginger
And boxes of flke
