Pumpkin pie

There is a pumpkin patch growing wild
I can see it from my window.

I know that sooner or later
there will be the noise and the gasoline
mingling with
the smell of grass and pumpkins being torn apart

perhaps someday I shall be able to buy such an aroma
from a very pretty but awkward girl over a glass counter
$89.99 for .75 ozs

and perhaps the pumpkin destroyer will come and kiss
the back of the awkward pretty girls hand
and passion and glass will break...

that aroma will sell for at least 119.99

and how come its always the small simple things
that break your heart.
