Zebra Crossing

Zebra Crossings
Kept Ryan Gosling
From making me blush
when I was coughing
and making something
You'll all peel
then eat
fresh palmnuts
cracked under pressure
while i measure
the kindness he radiates
and appreciate
Good acting
When bathing
In diamond dusts
covered with
Fresh tears
from his movies
that moved me
To look down and relize
i was a million miles
from the Zebra Crossings
