Dreaming Yo-Yos

walk the dog, rock

the cradle

           maybe

in this dream of yo-yos

the yo of yo

is dreaming yo-yos

                            or the yo

                            of yo

takes the shape

of a butterfly

in Lao Tse's dream

                                                                                and the butterfly

                         utterly

seduced by the pendulum swish of yo

yos

       flits around Yo-Yo Man

to show round

                the world, sleeping

                susan

in this whirl

of totally dreaming yo-yos in the dream of the yo

                                               yos.
