Ashley

Gap toothed smile

Cheeks like candy apple red
Shining

Little Ashley slipping
Underneath

With beatle-bugs and crawly
Little worms
All penetrating feasting

Somewhere down down

Sliding
Silent through tall grass
Silent always sailing

Complacent

All painted, proper, true
Eternal
In memorium
Lost, laughing always

Lonely as I never was
Lonely as the news
