Alligators Poems - Poems about Alligators

alligator

I dreamt about an alligator
- what could that possibly mean?

Am I hoping that a lizard man
will slowly romance me?

Are my desires so primitive, so ancient
that we could come to some arraignment?

Would a silent and cold-blooded lover
be as ??considerate as any other?

Do I long for scaly fingers
to caress me up and down?

Or lust for reptile Dolce

Smiling Alligators and Crocodiles

The Titanic is loading now at the White House dock
     Smiling alligators and crocodiles boarding unaware

  Theirs will be a voyage with no survivors
     The Lord, no Charge d'affaires

Amazing Alligators Antagonize

Amazing alligators antagonize anyone’s annual anteaters
As antelopes arrive at the annual annulment.
Annoying Aunt Amanda alleges all anticipation awful.
As anticipated Abigail Alliwogger assassinates anteaters.
Anointed antonym annihilates Aunt Amanda and abdicates
Amazing alligators announcing annual anteater’s annulment.

Be Gone Alligators

In the land of the alligators, pelicans and manatees
Florida takes prisoners from up north and throws away their keys
Once there, they never want to escape back home 
For they love the weather here, where they can always roam. 

They turn old here, if they are not already there, but many are.
The crepe myrtles are blooming,

Alligators

The floor is tiled in white and green
Outside the ballet class
Where all the girls run up and down
To make the minutes pass.

Today a new game started - 
Only walk on parts of green
For alligators maybe hiding
In the white, unseen.

The ballerinas hop and jump,
Avoiding floor that's white,
All following a leader,
Shrieking in pretended fright.

This new adventure fills

Alligators Discuss My Meat

Two mighty alligators follow me from the bowels of the swamp
Talking in low voices, but I have dog ears so I catch on.
They are diving me up.
One wants my thighs.
The other is talking about my juicy breasts
Leaving me in no real suspense about what gender they probably are.

About Alligators, Porcupines and Buttons

The importance of buttons is significant 
Strung out on a thin thread of thought
Through the eye of a needle too small to close
For a camel to go through but why would they?  

In Florida, sex with wild animals is illegal
Porcupines and alligators are not for people
According to the law it is also wrong
And this

Alligators

Alligators stalk
Water moccasins stay clear
Frogs suddenly still
Old cypress trees water bound
Creaking in the bayou swamp

Sebring: Alligators and Marshmallows

Sebring: long ago
humid heat leaches will
blue lakes and brown swamps
     “Caution Alligators”
transformative sunsets
clockwork storms and
     lightning balls
cactus spine sabotage
fire ants flip flops
alligators eat marshmallows
     from a stick
trees costumed in air plants 
     and Spanish moss
Grand Prix dreams
beaches buried deep

Gun Shot Alligators

gun shot alligators

scrambling fall dissolve slo-mo into mosaic pieces scraped together of the fishwife’s sawdust floor
sipping red neon earth quaked insecurity shakes when’ll the next run’s steed come forth
till I happily forge a carthaginian peace with the muses’ universal militia fragmented ragtag band playing on some dead main street candy striped phonograph
gun shot alligators eating

Alligators Were Dying

I always differed
for the sake of semblance.
Feathers did not agree.
You flew away for your sky.

Impatience had killed the defeat
my elixir, the baby sea in my eyes.
Genocide of the figs, unlearning
the sweetness of life.

Yet a white python was hungry.
A heart rendering feat to dig-out
a home after the earthquake.
Alligators were dying in midstream.

I was running after the

Alligators

Beware from alligators,
A notice board was hanged,
Outside the pond,
And water was very quiet.

I tried to look around,
I haven’t seen any alligator,
But suddenly an animal came,
And bend to drink water.

I have seen a giant alligator,
Attacked on an animal,
But a poor animal has lost his life,
But board was still hanging.

I have seen thousands alligators,
In white clothes but
