FOR ALL IN TENTS AND PORPOISES

For spinach spitters, cheese believers, and
Mass consumers of cake.
For those who began as rabbit ears and
Became the mouth of a snake.
For baseball card constellations swatting
Paper stars out of the park.
For pen pal moons and suns swapping
Bright for some days of dark.
For insult comic werewolves and for
Vampires who sing-a for us.
For drag-racing Neanderthals on
Souped-up brontosaurus.
For astronauts and aeronauts in
Rockets and zeppelish.
For gonzonauts and fonzonauts
Cycling o’er dangerous fish.
For science and for scientists spilling
Elements in their lab.
For all in tents and porpoises,
The world’s your hermit crab.
