Enchanted Heart Alike A Soft Toy Poem by Christina Ader

enchanted heart alike a soft toy
lay pallpable and ductile-gummy
digested by a choosy girl or boy
left spiritless aside as if a dummy

the shape of heart is oyster with defence
shell-invincible, and moisture are
limp inners when rumourings
but in a moment not a ray through fence

if our plans for life, an attitude is mutual
then no need to wait and ask me for the future
a child is the owner of this body,
he is the searcher, not a lover
