Olaf
He walked the earth
in ivory white snow,
taking step by step
with his thin wooden legs.
He tried to laugh,
but the sound
fizzled in the air
turning to smoke,
making him think he was a dragon.
He smiled, his coal eyes
deep with thought,
a black lake that swam with fire.
His nose was the color of
rotten yams, mushy and turning
green at the tips.
He heard the girl giggle
from behind a shadowed tree.
"Do you want to build a snowman?"
Olaf laughed, the pitch off-key and shrill.
He wished he was never made.
