There is a room in my apartment that spins on its own at 170 beats per minute
With blue upside down flags and yellow wishes
milky tricycles
musical boxes inside Red googely eyed animals
Tigers bouncing on springs
hanging paperplate hats stuck with feathers and green coton balls
folded kites, coconut shell faces
tiny wish people in the shape of a heart
Construction Helmet slippers,
worn everyday golden shoes,
fly better wings
bottles that don't drip
plastic pee proof mats under the sheets
a basket jammed with both a Barbie and a Spiderman life jacket for the small pool on Sunday
and a mommy doing next to mamma please
till my favorite socks fall asleep
