Green pearl without a string

He does not roll,
not one shouting proudly to the world
how that is the case

He's an orb, by name,
and a jade pearl, a pea
unthreaded

I still cannot
with ears that fold in and out

more skittish than a horse about being approached
picky and petty
but personal

and mine

It was a convoluted dad joke
that led to the name
seonbae
