Eating Working Insects For Dinner and Desert

I ATE A GRASSHOPPER
                                                                      ANTS DANCED INTO THE HOUSE
                                                                          MOUSE FINISH THE LAUNDRY
                                                         AS THE LAZY CAT SLEEPS ON THE COUCH
                                     DOG IS COOKING DINNER PARROTS MAKING DESERTS
                                               STRAWBERRY CHOCOLATE JELLO PUDDING PIES
                                                AS THE GRASSHOPPER JUMPED OUT MY MOUTH
                                                                       YET BEFORE HE COULD HOLLAR
                                                                      AND BEFORE I COULD SWALLOW

                                                                             by james edward lee sr.
