tuck your shirt in
keep out the cold
each day same as it ever was
but no matter
what good is it
for you to have a cold belly
remember common folk
are good
(must be)
your heroine sat on a secret
pulled it’s silky, rancid feathers
one by one out of the rotting down pillow she sat on to spin her tales each day
that bigness in her that wanted to get it so right
down on the page
but rotten rotten
now the books smell bad
so tuck in
keep that belly safe
and listen to your children
