Tin Woodman collage by Lady K

Tin Wouldman

Art heart thou art, Tin Woodman
thy empty space outfilling place you rest
in exo-tin softer than calloused skin
firm fondness felt for care to spare
beware the eye of other
their chitinous text
firm beating flesh bereft of heft
in immoral press of next for blood and turnip
spurn it and them Tin Wouldman
friend indeed
you are much heeded
though heartless thou art heart
and bleed for need when needed

– Smith, 10.26.2013
