Chereads / Left-Handed / Chapter 11 - Crust

Chapter 11 - Crust

The baby boy cries

As the wiry flab is skinned

Because the extra piece is unpinned,

And hasn't sinned.

.

Religiously,

The boy is sacred,

But as long as he's careful,

The virtue is forgiven.

.

Boys may have used branches

Because they're sanitary,

But the girls' holes are empty,

And many find them dirty.

.

The boy grows up

And thinks nothing,

Because his pig skin was manly,

So, he walks freely.

.

His crust is shown,

The core is no longer sacred.

His stem hangs,

And isn't special.

.

He experiences no punishment

Because he can't carry buds

So, he plants his seeds

And wrinkles the leaves.

.

Now, the cherry carries the leaves,

And the trees save the sticks,

While her arms feel heavy,

And his branches pin other trees.
