The Abominable Snowman and the Yeti

The Abominable Snowman and The Yeti Geezus ! what was that ! I saw something outside my cave And there the footprints leading away Across the white waste lands of snow They look kinda big For it to be me walking in my dreams And why would I be out anyway Its so flippin’ cold Was that the wind I heard moan Sounded eerie Kinda creepy Geezus Christ maybe I am not alone ! Crunching, crunching soft and quiet I can hear something stealthy Its coming close Sniffing and snorting Maybe it found my pee in the snow Oh god no ! Quiet ! Shhhhhh I didn’t mean to say Quiet ! quite so loudly Quiet………… Maybe it will go away And I’ll live to see another day But what’s that ! Has it found my home I thought this entire mountain was my own Its coming in ! Oh my God it looks like me All white and fur and burly It seems a little cautious though Hello…. What does it mean Hello ! Hello dinner ! ? I have to wonder But it has found me What ever it maybe Then it said “Hello I am a Yeti” Yeti…? I think my father told me about Yeti Strange creatures and oh so solitary It said quite softly and kinda sweetly “May I come in if I can? Its kinda cold out there in the snow all alone” Now I see it Its not quite as big as I thought it was Kinda cute and white a furry Hmmmm… looks kinda sexy really So I reached out my hand and said “come on in” Introduced myself “Hi, I’m the Abominable Snowman” She said with a sigh “yes I know” ………. ? ¿ ? ¿

Oooh, how I love the way this story unfolds, Colin. Great mix of suspense and humor. I laughed when you introduced yourself and also when the furry creature began to appear "sexy." I've been meaning to research "yeti," and now you have given me the inspirational kick I needed. Awesome work from a very talented poet. You are certainly among good company in my favorites. Love, Carolyn
