Pick of the Litter
PICK OF THE LITTER

The other pups sold for eight hundred,
a thousand. She was bought, returned.
Too bright, too hard. A diamond.
We got her for a prayer,
and now we’re paying. 
Oh those trickster-
sparkling eyes.
She’s price-
less....

Litter Bugs
'Litter bugs'

Why are we such a messy nation?
When blessed with such great sanitation
The litter bugs make my blood boil
When I see street cleaners toil
So of your taxes please don't moan
Would you litter like this in your home?

Please next time you spit out your gum
Think would...

Attention Litter Bugs
To all the litter bugs who are around
Please stop throwing your trash on the ground
I want my children to play and be safe
Not with garbage and broken glass all over the place
Everyone knows where the garbage should go
It's not on the ground or out your...

Premium Member Extinction By Litter
I saw several plastic bags caught
Upon drift wood, swaying atop the ocean.
A beer can or five lay scattered near by
Soon to be taken and kept by the tide.
I placed all trash in the bag I gripped,
Holding other cans, plastics, bags for chips.
I could not fathom...

Litter
trash dump filled
little green sprouts from moisture
dies from fumes

trash emptied
fresh grass sprouts beautifully
something seen

a small can
glistening atop the grass
never dies

Premium Member Winters Litter
 Broken sticks and limbs
littering the snow-clad ground;
remnants of a storm.
Winter’s tantrum, rages on;
there’ll be fewer trees, in spring.

KITTY LITTER

Kittens tumble to and fro,
From room to room, just watch them go.
Attack the curtains at first light,
The sheers put up a mighty fight.

Ninja kitties, assassins four,
Quietly steal across the floor,
Suddenly, quick as a flash,
They charge the loo in one mad dash.

The toilet paper is...

Our Litter, Our World
https://m.soundcloud.com/user-921599710/our-litter-our-world

Of many a surround, complexities be found
Containers lying moist, a decision or a choice
Yet further on afield, a glance at orange peel
Paper, plastic, food, piles amass of tin

Remnant turning raw, a rotten eyesore
Rustling wind o’ waste, left in sudden haste
The mice can now compete, with...

Premium Member Litter Critters
Litter critters everywhere
kill our planet dont you care?
cars, plastic, paper and mush
tyres, metal and fancy stuff,
microplastics in our seas
water life cannot flee
drowns, drowns, drowns

Litter critters everywhere
kill our planet dont you care?
tortured deaths by human glut
cruelly their pain, endured
plastic ring ties a birds beak
poor little guy...

Premium Member Litter
Litter here, litter there
Piles of litter everywhere.
Bins half empty or piled high
Too much packaging in supply.  

Plastic, paper, metal cans
Liquid spillage in sea and lands.
Waters full of micro beads
Man-made plastic, choking seeds. 

Wasted food turns to stench and rot
Flies and rats love those spots.
Wrappers,...

Manage Litter
If you want to manage litter,
Use the litter pickeruparer,
Nothing picks up litter better, 
Than the litter pickeruparer,

Litter picked up 
By the litter pickeruparer,
Goes with litter picked up later 
With the litter pickeruparer

Litters picked up better
With the litter pickeruparer
Nothing better picking litter 
Than the litter pickeruparer...

Litter Swept the Earth
The fall is being chased by the restless earth
Longing for self-destruct
Melting peat in soil melting contest
Bind the selected space guard
Carbon in the seepage of the earth

Mother Earth sincerely caressed him to death
His life for the carbon ascetics
To remain silent until the time comes
As the faithful...

Bodies Litter Bama Town
Like wrappers on a carnival street,
So bodies litter Bama Town;
As time deflates these body balloons,
Flies gyrate in their flowing fluid.

Above them wafting their flag
That shred them like potato chips
And mindful of why? And why?
‘‘Infidel must die’’, they post.

Then comes afar a zombie voice,
A retreat voice...
