My Familiar

Tutelary deity 
Much too poncey

A cat perhaps
Yes by preference

Oh a dog 
But they smell so much

Niggets or creepy crawly things no
No Succubus a seduction in my sleep

Mold

Its creepy 
Its crawly
It lives in unexpected places
On bread
in showers
Even on rock towers
Beware,beware
of this scary scary thing
You never know where it could be.
It's MOLD!

Peely-Wally

If someone admits to feeling “peely-wally” It's a Scottish term meaning unwell and crawly Just stay tuned I'm really festooned With tidbits of stuff both inspiring and laudatory

Yes Mein Friend

yes mein friend
i like the muddled wasp
to only feel the spinning
whirling breathing
that the buzzing fiend sure sculled
to breathe and steam routine 
around sullied crawly roads
constructing measure
as my paper takes off

yes mein friend
i like the idea
of being like the wasp

Crawly Things

Crawly things oft make me cringe, pull back; stop in my tracks and start to panic. Among them spiders scorpions and snakes, are critters that I fear. They give me goosebumps; and my neck hairs stand straight up, if I but glimpse one.

On All Hallow's Eve

unseen in forests
creepy crawly things slither. . . 
inhabiting night

miles from the black woods
bolder creatures (upright) flit. . . 
whooping in the streets

woods seem eerier
towns' garish beasts seem wilder. . . 
and strangeness prevails

Armadillo

Roly poly armor plated,
Clumsy gated beast.
Looking for a juicy worm,
A creepy, crawly feast.

Sleeping mostly through the day,
Prowling at night,
seeming quiet, docile, shy,
He can put up a fight.

Not a trouble maker,
It's just his lot in life.
He does his best not to be seen.
He's trying to survive.

Living Through It

I am fine
I will survive 
After every time 
I live, I will get mad 
At you sometimes 
You do mind, 
I don't get your kind 
I will find,
Another way to get signed 
To find some other way 
To not be in your day 
Crawly to find other ways 
To be no-where to be found
Running with unsound like a ninja unbound.

Giving Thanks

A stink bug has landed on my lips.
I am in and of the grass,
laying down
a living foundation.

Out of nowhere,
I think of my mother
and her hot Irish temper.

I swipe the oval brown insect away,
cursing all the irritating, and crawly,

then I doze.
I am a raised earthwork,
a forgiving quietude under the sun -

thank you mum.

Armadillo

Roly poly armour plated,
Clumsy gaited beast.
Looking for a juicy worm,
A creepy, crawly feast.

Sleeping mostly through the day,
And prowling at night,
Seeming quiet, docile, shy,
He can put up a fight.

Not a trouble maker.
It's just his lot in life.
He does his best not to be seen,
He's tryng to survive.

Stinky Shoes

There’s a fungus among us
It’s funky no doubt.

It’s creepy, it’s crawly
and I’m quite put out.

Tennis shoes, Gym shoes,
Golf and football cleats.

Snow shoes, walking shoes,
rain shoes and sleets

Running shoes, Sunday shoes
Bedroom shoes galore

All strung out and stinky
In your room on the floor

Creepy Crawly Love

Looked up into the night sky
And I saw you falling
Then in the distance I watched you
Ever so slowly crawling to me

Sitting here I watched the sun rise
And I heard you calling
A sweet sensation rushes over me
Ever so slowly churning my insides

Looked out into the evening
And I saw you yearning
Floating to me like a spirit I once knew
Ever so slowly dancing to me

Life In Cyprus 2

We've got flowers and trees and Bees that sting
                and quite a few other creepy crawly things,
                We got rocks and weeds,a little waterfall,
                And a nice place to sit and view it all.
                Am I homesick for England? Not one bit,
                I'm here until God says it's time to quit!

Creepy Crawly Things

Creepy Crawly Things

Big eyes crying in the dust
May you not slither and bust
Those green creepy crawly things
Might prance unto you and sting
Seeing all those creepy critters
Might or even make you shivers
Was out cutting lawn saw big eyes
Now I’m telling you this is not lies
Those big creepy crawly things
Just might attack and give many stings.

Happy Halloween

Creepy crawly spider webs
Ghost and goblins in their head
Beware the night so full of dread
Apple bobbing, candy corn
Jack o lanterns light the way
Children so excited as they beg
To be delighted, but now
It’s time to go to bed;
And dream of all that they have done
They dream of ghosts and goblins
And the witches they have seen
And they’ll dream of trick or treating
On this Happy Halloween

Ms Mills

You can't pizazz good poetry
It's more of a creepy, crawly thing.
How do you like my alliteration?
Stop snorting, good golly
(prescribing popcorn pureed in petulance)
okay, at least I tried... truly ;)
ps, am not into popularity.
just jivin.
don't dawdle
or drivel or drink much or dribble or
worry
stream of consciousness....
Ms. Mills taught me that
seems surreptitious to stop suddenly.
So I shall.

Fear

Fear is a strong feeling for me, an emotion I despise
It is sometimes debilitating to me at times, I have surmised
Spiders, heights, creepy crawly bugs, diseases I may get
I am fearful of failure, not giving my all, having regrets
I fear being alone, dying alone, wasting away in a nursing home
I fear the afterlife and ponder if I will go to another realm to roam
