One thing you’ll want to know
Is why, as time goes crawling past,
The hours seem so slow!

And you think crawling is fine

Query From My Ex

Am I really so flawed?
Am I truly that odd?
Crawling like a snake
Into the canebrake
A whoremongering fraud
No wonder you don't like me.

the apple had holes
early springtime crawling bores
rotten sublet cores

Creeping quietly, crawling slowly
Walking stealthly, eying hungrily
Waiting patiently, calculating rapidly

nerd dad

once a child with a rattle

enjoyed crawling around cattle

till its mother found out

and to her ex did shout

you lost your custody battle.

Alone

Today I feel so alone
Looking to find a mate
Who shares my same fate

Walking, crawling, dying
Looking to find
Someone who shares how I feel inside.
