ROBERT THE DOLL
Dolly
come and play with me.
Dance
and skip and sway.
Pennies
for your fantasies—
Pay
you back someday.
Little
sailor in your suit,
Smiles
all around.
You
come from lands of sunny fruit
And
speak without a sound.
Move
from pane to pane to pane
When
family isn't near;
Never
eye has seen them plain:
Whispers
to the dears.
Whose, the padding cross the boards?
How, the chair, it rocks?
Softly move the window cords,
Softer sound the knocks.
Whose, the padding cross the boards?
How, the chair, it rocks?
Softly move the window cords,
Softer sound the knocks.
Blink
and giggle, dash and wiggle,
Tormentor
and fastest friend;
Screams
at night, frenetic fright;
When
will dolly meet his end?
