STOP THIEF!

Big scarecrow’s shadow
climbs into the driver’s seat
as if to steal car
we standing like two scarecrows
until the sun arrests him.

*******

SCARECROW READS TOO MUCH PHILOSOPHY

If no one sees me
falling down the scarecrow thinks:
“Am I real or not? ”
“You are real to me! ” I grin
setting him upright again.
