My nephew wore yellow suns
and red flags of Japan
splattered on his green cover-alls.
He pumped and loaded,
rolled and laughed, pink
tongue stinking out,
nose red, eyes wild
with delightful anticipation.
The war was well under way.
*I’ve never played paintball with my nephews, but it was so delightful to see the look of sheer joy on their faces when they came plodding across the yard, looking like a couple of walking canvases. If you would like to share in his experience first-hand, well, here’s a link for you!
