Praying Mantis Pet
Hello, I am a praying mantis from the tropics,
a killer really, once I bit off the head of my lover;
and then I ate him, yummy and then I was caught,
I ended up in a pet store until one day she bought me.
I am a strange...

The Scorpion's Touch
“The Scorpion’s Touch”
Under glass
the sound cuts out sharp
just like under water
and we run out of breath
like insects running around
frantically out of time
we are magnified
in our tight enclosures
internally observed
the external turns away
two heart beats in the one
a new view of an old star
as...

What IfWHAT IF?
Alone with my thoughts on a thoughtful day; just thinking
I thought of many things but one thing keeps replaying; what if?

Could be for sickness, a worry or intense pain from a foe.
You say to beware of the medicine
That brings on the dreams
That are weirder or bizzare-r than they’ve ever been.

Lacy Limerick lived on a lane
Named Limerick off a street named Main
As if that wasn't enough
Here's even more weirder stuff

A poet who wrote humor that flowed

Sometimes It's All Yours, Some of It Remains MineAll of a sudden I miss a step
And then you excuse me the lack of continuity
He dragged me here, taking me by my hair and then asked me to leave some space in me to handle all of his dirt.

A copy of said...

Out of everyone that could get stung it...

The Parking Lot Duck-Head-Another True Tom TaleI live in a trailer park in upstate N.Y.
