she lives in this house over there
has her world outside it
scrabbles in the earth with her fingers
and her mouth -she's five years old

thread worms on a string
keeps spiders in her pocket
collects fly-wings in a jar scrubs horse flies
and pinches them on a line

she's got one friend he lives next door
they listen to the weather
he knows how many freckles she's got
she scratches his beard

she's painting huge books
and glues them together
they saw a big raven
it glided down the sky -she touched it

today's a birthday they're smoking cigars
he's got a chain of flowers
and sows a bird in her knickers

they're smoking cigars
they lie in the bathtub
a chain of flowers
