The Mongoose
There was a mongoose by a lake,
Who vowed, ‘No more cookies and cake.’
And he later confessed,
(If you haven’t all guessed):
‘…because it’s the year of the snake…’

For Gwendolen’s Limerick contest...

If one mongoose is called a mongoose

   Then can't we conclusively deduce

      That two could be called mongeese

         'Twould make a great discourse piece

Wanted: Mongoose
WANTED:
Mongoose!

I need to borrow a mongoose!
I'm tired of this snake in my house!
And turn that little rascal loose
On every lizzard, snake, and mouse!

No--wait! Not the lizard. He's fine.
But that snake--need to cook his goose!
He could stay--OUTSIDE--INSIDE's mine!
Nope! There he is! Still on the loose!

Mongoose Hunt
You should have heard the steaming riot
Of the village carnival
The beating pans, the conversing griot
And the boys bright bacchanal
You do not know what relief the moment give
To a village's quiet life, the hope
For a hero's incentive to any who ends its life
What will be saved?...

Snowflakes- fragile as they are. 
Silently gather upon granite slopes.
In fantastic avalanche like clusters.
Burying the cancel cultist narc and the blinded woke...
wonderful- wonderful avalanche- 

Weak minded cancel cultist feel threatened by everything. 
Except for themselves and their barber pole thoughts.
Screaming diversity. Never mentioning unity.
What a...

Premium Member A Mongoose Lives In My Upper Nostril
A mongoose lives in my upper nostril, with her man.
They make as much noise up there as they possibly can.
Honking and laughing themselves into a frenzy daily.
Making so much noise, Linda Sue and her man named Bailey.

They would be my most annoying parasites except, 
There...

Mongoose Philosophy
The ferreting eyes
Tiny bulbs of duality
Moon and sun in the shrubbed darkness
Dogs frenzied, the cries
Of sudden solidarity
And the lane broken out into madness

The small village shudders
With glee, the found frailty
Of pingwing patches permitting invasion
Through porous borders
Confronts mortality
Man and mongoose devoid of conversation.

Little furry creatures
Sudden sites...

Premium Member Bring In a Mongoose
Bring in a mongoose
to kill that predator snake
who ate that poor mouse.

He's small, but vicious.
The snake doesn't have a chance
when the mongoose strikes.

White Mongoose
Steel insulation warm thin hot smooth downy shepherd smoothness. Pistol clasps palms crystal misses birching basket weavers.
Fluffy firm pedestals release hard deniers.
Doldrum office charts demonstrating 
Appendages conceal resistance. 
Halcyon boogie board heroes.
Greek play rehearsal.

Premium Member We Look Like Weasels
We look like weasels
But we are related to cats
Let’s do the mongoose cha cha and shake our fats!
Rata Tat Tat, Rata Tat Tat!

We like our meat
But will also eat insects and plants
We bring up our kits together
in a colony where we’ll be eating ants....
