handling candy as we do,
having it lined up
on conveyors, sliding slowly,
inevitably, our
eyes adjusted to each piece,
each flaw noticed,
like they were
kids we pulled
from line as they
waited for recess:
a mousy brown?
pull it.
a sneezing chocolate-cherry?
stop it.
some foreign piece of hair
out of place
on warm chocolate?
yank it.
the white boxes
shut
till delivery,
warmth
creeping through
the cardboard.
wonder who will
come out and play
today?
