Lugers Poems | Examples

Dining With Dysfunction

Mother asked her big brother to pass the sugar;

big brother ruined it by splashing on liquor;

father rued spilt liquor by throwing his jigger

that hit sister who lit an elbow hard slammer

straight into the hand of their rare guest and butcher;

butcher stood to secure a full-face slap on her;

slap missed, striking their napping, fat cat to a blurred

flying fur on shriek tour that dog crashed with claws bore;

clawed dog wailed and bailed, dragging tail out wee dog door

where he ran to distance pain until a looper

stopped his scooter – close by was one giant cougar;

too pooped to care, tired dog flopped right then and right there;

dog closed eyes, cougar cleared throat, then croaked, ‘Hey, Lassie,

are you insanely blind to cougar claw lugers?’;

dog moaned, ‘A quick cougar corker beats home murder.’
