Doris Culverhouse Poet Light Verse

Peach Splatter

Please take me to the hospital
My innards are coming out by the handfuls
The dog has chewed my brains 
I can't think clearly

Wash me, or recover me soon!
I look a mess, don't let anyone see me like this!!
Please clean out from under me
A rare bacteria has begun to grow down there!

Who let the little monster color on me?
I was such a delicate fabric
Royal lineage you know
No one will ever respect me now!!
I want another family!!

For the favorite chair contest
