Return to the Plastic Utopia


Twisted metal and shapeless form;
From thou appendages do we adorn.
Jungle gym.

Downward tumble and quickening pace;
Land on your feet, not on your face.
Slide.

Soaring seats and skyward bound;
Glide through the air, high above the ground.
Swings.

One flies up and one falls down;
From equal sides comes a laughing sound.
Seesaw.

Squeaking rubber and players short and tall;
Miss your shot and the ball will fall.
Basketball court.


Wooden frame and a rocking spring;
This mighty steed can do anything.
Spring rider.

I come back to the playground of my youth.

I return to the plastic utopia.
