Poison onion rings
                                                Bunion on a sling
                                              Rustic carriage bolts
                                        Shoe string eating antelopes
                                         Cankered bison crying wolf
                                   While dancing under the heated son
                                      No one comes this is the dawn

The Dog, the Bear, and the Maggot

The Dog is structured,
Always working to preserve,
Familial ties.
Diligent service,
Loyal to love and country,
Strong yet still servile.

The Bear is nurtured,
A hunter in fair weather,
Useless in winter.
Promises plenty,
But bleeds his own forest dry,
Water, trees and all.

The Maggot is cankered,
A hollow soul and stomach,
Skulking forest floors.
Can only scavenge,
ON the corpses of others,
And their fellow man.
