once on a yellow piece of paper with green lines he wrote a poem and called it "chops" because that was the name of his dog an that was what it was all about.And his teacher gave him an A and a gold star.And his mom hung it on the kitchen door and read it to his aunts That was the year that father tracey took all the kids too the zoo and he let them sing on the bus And his little sister was born with little toe nails and no hair And his mother and father kissed alot And the girl arround the corrner sent him valintine singned with a row of x's And he had to ask his father what they meant and his father always tucked him in bed at night And was always there to do it. once on a white peice of paper with blue lines he wrote a poem and he called it "autumn" because that was the name of the season And his teacher gave him an A and asked him to write more clearly And his mother never hung it on the kichen door because of its new paint and the kids told him that father tracey smoked cigars And left the butts on the pews and some times they would burn holes That was the year hi sister got glasses with thick lenses and black frames And the girl around the corrner laghed when he asked her to go see santa claus And the kids told him why his mother and father kissed alot And his father never tucked him in bed at night And he got mad when he cryed for him to do it.Once on a paper torn from his note book an he called it "innocence:a question" because that was the question about his girl And that's what it was about And his professor gave him an A and a stange steedy look And his mother never hung it on the kichen door because he never showed it to her That was the year that Father Tracy died and he forgot how the end of the apostle's creed went And he his sister making out on the back porch And his mother and father never kissed or even talked And the girl arround the corrner wore way too much make up that made hiim cough when he kissed her but he kissed her any way because that was the thing to do And at 3 am he tucked him self into bed his father snoring soundly. thats why on the back of a brown paper bag he tryed another poem and he called it "apsolutly nothing" because that's what it was really all about And he gave himself an A And a slash on each damned wrist And he hung it on the bath rooom door because this time he diddn't think he could make it to the kichen .......
