book covers


she tells me her book cover would
be a bright yellow
with dandelions, unicorns
and rainbows.
there would be a frosting of
bright stars.
children would be skipping about,
happiness in their
hearts. gumdrops for eyes.
sugary sweet.
i show her my book.
and the next one.
i'm thinking skull and crossbones
for the third.
or a dungeon
with a slender ray of light coming 
through the barred window.
