Kings of Siam


image borrowed from tess kincaid

kings of siam


A line of royals
traveling lazy Susans
some kind of magicians

we learn to stutter
use hand signals
stretch wide as wings
in the open wind

our fleshy transmitters
pick up signals
from Sky King
or King Kong

there is no wrong
side of the tracks
only rock, paper, scissors

we ride around like sultans
meaning no harm
