The Toy Store


by Amanda Harris


The toy store is a box made
from the box that is the box.
That means, in some vague way,
that I am closer to Heaven
by having fondled its figures.
Figures are a strip tease—
but maybe also something
more appropriate—a video game.
A slipped love letter. 
A gun that begs for ammo
but only ever gets flowers.
