A Child's Mess with Words...or Poems...Something

"Words...
Spinning round my head
Other thoughts have fled
Twirling round with ease
Like a light spring breeze
Words....
Shiny like brass
Coming out my ass..."

"This is supposed to be a children's poem," she rudely interrupts.

"I know."

Blank stare.

"I mean. No. I know. Yes it was just a test."

She isn't amused.

A heavy sigh, she signals again:

"Please, please try to focus..."

"This is not a very good children's poem,"  I smile.

"You're not funny."

Ouch.
