Dandelions Of Playboys Poem by Robert Rorabeck

Dandelions of playboys grow up
Learning to drink the sweat off the
White house-
While all of the wine in this house-
In this little apartment
Way up high in Shanghai, China-
Is housed in boxes left over
From our wedding-
Boxes meant for Christmas
For the vikings
Toating that we had our years-
And I made my wife come twice in her
Parents bedroom in the early afternoon
Yesterday:
The same bedroom we conceived our
First child in-
Out of the window:
Snow
And farther in the distance,
Airplanes:
Airplanes making barretts for beautiful
Women-
Airplanes making sashes and garlands for
Monolithic women-
While beneath,
In their caverns of I know not what,
All the cold women
Crossing their legs-
Scribbling their chicken tracks on the
Obvious sides of better and more
Esoteric of things.
