A three stanza poem about the scarecrow king.
"Smear your paint across my cheeks and call me 'God.'
Straw in my veins and straw in my soul-I am not flesh.
I know thunder and I know the stench of rain on sod
or, how in springtime, everything smells green and fresh.
Look at me and you do not see a capped man sporting plaid.
For I may be capped and I may sport plaid, but I am no man..."

poised to grab her laciest, pinkest, most elaborate corset.
But then a slinky sweater catches her unstable attention.
It is long, chunky cable-knit, and full of blatant pretension..."
