those burnt folks

fresh spring
and i'll forgive
all the folks for
wandering around in
short shirts short skirts short shorts
exposing too-pale freshly burnt flesh
it really aint pretty

but then again
amongst all these tulips
even I must actively resist
throwing off all my clothes
to become a lobster
snuggled into lush green grass

(though lobsters
don't actually turn red
till they are boiled -
dead.)
