"Shamu"-- by: Daveed L.

crunch, crackle, chomp
the graham cracker breaks in two, sprinkling crumbs onto
the blue whale behind it
A new name,
A jolly rancher being the only security,
left out for the rats in an outer ring
Call me by my name
Then pull out my ears--wings you called them--
yank my hair
Whilst i swim away chuckling,
elated at a defense
a bruised nose, proof that i was there
