Very soon marmosets and moose
will get their vaccines.
A lone gnome fishes in a Koi pond.
The light of the moon
has been dimmed by a Chinese switch.
Elite bands of cockatoos
fight for free speech, but just for themselves.
Preening jackasses bray in the green rain
and the songs are all the same.
A fearful old man stammers in the dark.
So far the greater apes are in ascendance
however, a turtle and trumpet alliance
has formed a combo of resistance.
Four masks a day and a cup of instant propaganda
keep us hiding behind a surreal subterfuge.
Afghan warlords wander empty streets
handing out relief packages.
Birds rent-out tree space to killer bees.
Belfry’s are bankrupted by fleeing bats.
Harpies and stool pigeons
turn in their stools for further interrogation.
King Kong whimpers inside a skyscraper closet,
too shy and lonely now
to swat even the smallest of biplanes.

Marmoset directs traffic better than monkeys or sloths.
He stands in the highway and walks his feet off.
We have hired other species. but they do not hold a candle.
To Marmoset who can do it at every single damned angle.
He is demanding a raise, sixteen more meals a week.
For he has plenty of mouths to feed, and his offspring squeak.
It behooves us to give them to him, and I will tell you why.
If he trains all his children, we have a replacement if he doth die.
The way he stands in the middle of the highway each day.
Is the absolute craziest mess, and I doubt that marmosets pray.
So let's cough up those extra meals, while he is still alive
Before he demands a ridiculous amount like thirty or forty five.

Toast and marmalade for tea
Sailing ships upon the sea."
-Tin Tin, 1971
Goats and marmosets for tea
Snails and thrips and angry bees
You're more beautiful than me
With your tea served in the trees.
As the sun plays through the leaves
Chipmunks leap from limb to limb
Striving to be biscuit thieves
Fill your teacup to the brim.
Start mine with a bit of cream
Sip my tay, lean back, day dream
As the marmosets convey
With the chipmunks they would play.

I've Limricized..' Haiku
Than Bauk, a time or two.
In verse intent, play scenes.
To prose.' not heavy of line.!
My word..! 'to grasp the time'
Its to do.! Today so seems..
In green of mango groves,
Where marmosets flex toes
Crush berry.. Daub bamboo screen,
To paint a vivid show
my wish for you to know.'
In Balassi stanza keen.

When night face appears:
Hades erupts with the
hammer of death,stiring
the waters.
Lemures dashing forth
and back preying on
wandering souls-tell-tale
odor pervading the
atmosphere.
Resistance is like chasing
shadows.
Shackles of bondage
looming,even the blue-
blooded under chains
and fetters.
Howling winds
harmonize with howls of
night marmosets-
creatures of doom.
Splattered blood spread
like cancer: a norm of the
day.
Mountains of carcasses
caressing the sky.
The world becomes
scene of blood bath,
carnages mounting,
screams perforating the
atmosphere.
Long ago,a human
phoenix lived and died-lo
he lives!
(Carpe diem)! He offers
hands of goodwill with
beaming smiles.
