Best Maggot Poems


The Dog, the Bear, and the Maggot
The Dog is structured,
Always working to preserve,
Familial ties.
Diligent service,
Loyal to love and country,
Strong yet still servile.

The Bear is nurtured,
A hunter in fair weather,
Useless in winter.
Promises plenty,
But bleeds his own forest dry,
Water, trees and all.

The Maggot is cankered,
A hollow soul and stomach,
Skulking forest floors.
Can only scavenge,

Maga Became Maggot and Did Tag It
a call had been close
after we would put on clothes

creating gerrymander
did raise up dander

Maggot Monotony
MAGGOT MONOTONY

on the precipice I survey
the sea of

maggots infest the nucleus
until the centre shrieks
like a sheet in
the night, startled by
the intense glare that
neon signs cast 
upon blankness and
pointless...

Maggot
Maggots crawling on the ceiling 
.................................On the wall
Hanging on strings of white
I dare not touch
I may only stare

Spray them with pesticide
Slam them on the ground
Bury them in the grain
but they never go away
It's going on two days now

Maggots on the ceiling
Sliced by the fan
................On the...

If I Was a Maggot
If I was a maggot
By Stanley Russell Harris
The new mad Author


If I was a maggot in the UK today!  No doubt I’d have a short life.
If homebred, I meant to say; no doubt I’d find myself in a bin.
With others all a wiggling.
Then someone...

Staying In Front
Not the best option at the battlefield!
One need not guess what it might at last yield.
For The Lucky bullets that missed targets,
For the less so Take-Away for maggots...

You dream not of daring a real war front,
Save you can humans and animals hunt:
For those who can...
