Best Guinea Pig Poems

Purple Guinea Pig
Growl growl bite bite goes the guinea pig
As she rips out your fecking throat
The fierce guinea pig purple in colour
Not to be fecked with or name called
She'll hunt you down and kill ya!
And talks like a real American
The purple guinea pig who growls
Straight...

My guinea pig
With the black and brown stripes
And the eyes big and black like space
And tiny little ears
That perk up when he hears the food come.

My guinea pig
Who sits on my lap
As I read, or just watch him
As he shifts tring to find a comfortable...

Every piece of furniture I am becoming attached
Is that possible?
Nah cannot be
You cannot become attached to things - personal things
Just like you cannot become attached to people
I am tired of being the mannequin
Guinea pig - whatever you call it
For God to try His hands on
I...

In 1985, we had three daughters.
They were 5, 10, and 11.
So life was fun, of course.
Each daughter had a gerbil.
Flopsy, Crumbone and Taylor.
Don’t ask me which is which.
They are rodents.

I broke my leg on a Thursday.
In 5 places, trying to ride a bike to the...

I inspect him,
a sweetheart specimen
in a cage. 
Fluffy like winter snow.
Squeaking in tempo. 

In a cage.
Critically

he secretly watches me. 
A wave of dread seeps into my head when I scroll through 
my phone instead 
of studying.
He monitors me in captivity.

Crazy cute and certainly not mute,...

Aye pride myself

cuz webbed phalanges

     branch handsomely
     from mine feet and wrist,
where perforce great expectations,

Gervi Guinea Pig's arrogance preceded him into every room.
He thought he was the utmost most of every meeting Zoom.
He was arrogant and pompous, thought he was too handsome to die
I rolled my eyes, as his nose walked by, always enormously high

Some tried to get me...

I will be your guinea pig I say.
What can I do for you today?
Wash the toilets? Clean the floor?
Paint that wall? Refinish your door?

I have arrived to work in a merry way.
Ready to have an absolutely fine Monday.
Just do any extra lunch duty, okay?
I wish...

Soft fur, gentle squeak
Curled up in a cozy ball
Guinea pig happiness

Tiny paws, bright eyes
Nibbling on fresh veggies
Playful little friend

Snuggle close, content
Warm fuzz against my chest
Guinea pig love flows...

Whacky? Perhaps but extremely powerful too.
He’s a guinea pig wizard from north Kalamazoo.
We have seen him turn the windows both pink and blue.
He has commanded a crow to fly in from the flue.

We call him Mr. Tibblets Tanglewood Tony Treble Clef Two.
He likes the whole...

fancy guinea pig Elvira wore a floral cap.
She danced a jig, a waltz and she sang a rap.
We were dizzy when we watched, had to take a nap.
She was a pretty thing who knew how to read a map.

We gave her instructions, and she showed...

Heavy Ticket
What a magnificent animal. 
The seven foot long guinea pig.
She was the same standing.
With the bite of a tiger.

I don't want one as a pet.
She would eat so many carrots.
And greens and seeds.
Above all else needing to be free.
One day I must write.
Then dream...
