potato boy

potato boy felt out of place in sugar town
until someone sprinkled icing over him
blending him right in
among snowy looking croissants.

and this misshapen confection
this blob in a bluff
is my very best friend,
because he understands
what it’s like to be different from everyone else
underneath.

      it’s just so incredibly infectious. listen to it. you will feel as happy as i did. promise. 🙂
