Im Scared of Nobody, I'm Scared of The Mush

It was a lovely game,
in which the receiving end
of unrequited dispossession ate our quarters, (though once was ear-to-ear
about her love, until
the bough-breaking
cradle) and all a stage
the world is, in which—
—the well-fated introductions
seem at first respondent.
—the low-ambitions grow bashful cunning. —cutout holsters watch the twenty-pace engagement steps unfurl without impatience. and
the gunshot peace that settles
brings a haystack needle chase
for our contentment when
the plastic soldiers bite their feeding-hands,
