wearing marabou foo foo
with a Whoville hairdo.
It's the latest fashion rave.
She split the game in two.
On a diamond sky stage
in her crimson-caped suit.
She captured the flame.
Love that shaped do.

           Slipping twixt mine dukes digits
                         hern pretty
                           moaning
                       Beguiling mine

                   her Marabou stole
                       Emerald eyne
                             Too
             hern tinted thew's sheath
                       their whence
                    Intrigues me not
                        Not az her
                            limp
                her protuberant stare
                        the silence

                          Inciting 
                 Mine noisome sneer
                             her
                            offed
                            hefft

  
* for the astute indulgerz uv this write; thanx for the visit...
for those who indulge for the guess why i wrote this: the original 
pronunciation uv Macabre, in the 1400'z by the french iz, how it iz written.
in english, we say 'macab' ...phonetically pronounced: mah cobb.
it comes from the french "danse macabre"; death dance ;)

A Stranger In My Garden

I see a stranger in my garden
Plowing and weeding with goats
Pulling the plow up and down
But the goats charge against him

The animals eat grass and plants
They swallow anything even metals
Because it is sure that like Marabou 
The mouth and exit have had a concord

When the animals are tired and frail
And the sun is going to his mother’s house
They bleat musical noise in persuasion
But the plowman’s mouth spits fire

With horns as soft as cotton wool
The limbs as tiny as grasshopper limbs
The bosoms begin to release carbon monoxide
And the goats are sent to rest for ever in limbo
