Pebble
Smooth, polished, glowing rosy
And a lie
The careful lapidaries
Polishing away with a TV flicker
The war
Into the pink paint
New on a school
The smiling candy
Dispensed, a stone
To be caught in the gizzard
No blood from a stone
When we drive away
Change the channel
It will be tossed by the roadside
Near a burning truck
In a shattered rear view mirror
