tree star conquistador

a tree stared up at the sky
a light burned high
i sighed

there is america, I said
there in the eye of a patriot

i opened a door and looked out
but the world came in

hello, they said
we're here and you can't make us leave

a soccer conquistador and baseball pitcher
threw me

on the rock wall
by a field a flower burns

i travel the world with a piano
and a mask

who am i?

This is what I am talking about. The ability to group words and make this kind of thought. Bring your stuff when you come in June and I will find a publisher. I bet I can.
