The Pencil Holders

These go out to the
prettiest pencil holders
that I've ever seen

Lacy bridges stretch
across bays of dewy milk
let me swim in them

Must resist gawking
at those juggling balls of fun
gravity will win

Kinky fantasy
must obtain dosage, daily
of kitten-killers

Soft little rabbit’s
noses sharpen in the cold
time to hibernate
