I can see you little round man
Skin mottled
Tinted with rust-colored leaves
You roll for me between my hands
And you forgive me if I drop you
Only bruises
No broken bones
When it is time you reveal yourself
I behold the fruit of my labor
And drink callously from your well
For sustenance
For happiness
And your tired shell remains
Torn and worn from trials and tribulations
