HAPPY POEM

been in search of a happy poem
one that dont need no smile

one that chops the ends of its
words whenever around friends

one that knots its knuckles
with its mothers

one that thinks of kissing
then kisses with nothing on its mind

one that licks its fingers
after eating fatty food

one that smells of language
with a linger of simple soap

one that witnesses children
dance and dance a happy poem

one that don’t need no smile
