one little boy + one toy automobile = one tired auntie
i.

green plastic splashes
sinks, nestles between his knees
his chortles echo

ii.

“vroom-vroom.” plastic wheels
clatter on porcelain and flesh
my arm is a road

iii.

he doesn’t let me
touch his hair unless first the
toy suffers shampoo

iv.

dance of empty bath
he flees the towel’s blanketing
seeks his auto friend

line count:12. four linked haiku
