I know the F word
says the seven year old.
It’s Fuck.
There is no snarl
in the syllable,
only amusement
that a word
is called
by the same
first letter
that begins his name.
Oh yeah,
says the other seven year old,
who’s name begins
with C,
I know the C word.
He waits
for the F boy
to guess,
then says,
It’s Kissing.
