She lives in this house over there
Has her world outside it
Scrabbles in the earth
with her fingers and her mouth
She's five years old
Thread worms on a string
Keeps spiders in her pocket
Collects fly-wings in a jar
Scrubs horse flies
and pinches them on a line
She's got one friend he lives next door
They listen to the weather
He knows how many freckles he's got
She scratches his beard
She's painting huge books
Glues them together
They saw a big raven
It glided down the sky
She touched it
Today's a birthday
they're smoking cigars
He got a chain of flowers
Sows a bird in her knickers
They're smoking cigars
Lie in the bathtub
Chain of flowers
