“Summon glamorous bathtub!” I say excitedly.
“Hmm, didn’t work,” I mumble.
“Summon glamorous shower!” I say again happily.
“Hmm, didn’t work,” I reiterate.
“Hmm" scratches chin.
"Have I been scammed by that mysterious plumber who sold me this magic ring?”
“Hmm, didn’t work,” I mumble.

Sun hits a fruit bowl
Persimmon glow pulls me back

Sun hits a fruit bowl
Persimmon glow pulls me back
Your taste in my dream
Persimmon glow pulls me back
Your taste in my dream
a ripe persimmon
resting in a blue bowl
the morning sun
wakes me from a dream
of you feeding me fruit
