I have an inkling My writing is winking At me behind my back Or maybe its just blinking, Mindlessly thinking While wrinkling up My tiny universe By tinkering And intermingling The real and the false~ I hear a clinking, A chilling kind of whistling; What is that stinking pickling I can feel bristling Up and down my spine?
