A Hamster

my little hamster
has four tails
he runs on his wheel
all day long
he doesn't get tired
because he eats
a lot of food


Premium Member PET

Precious dog, hamster or cat;

Even Michael Jackson’s “Ben,” a rat!

Tarantula too? Imagine that.

Things

things that were
things that are
things that will never be
all these thoughts
go round and round
like a hamster on an endless wheel

Premium Member Boulevard

With complete freedom 
to wear anything one wants
in public: 
hamster ball.

Very dapper
sauntering the boulevard
in one's hamster ball.


Freedom

Freedom is priceless 
But does come with a price tag
Which debt do you choose
The worlds hamster wheel approach
Or....life outside of the box

Premium Member Hamster Named Neil

There once was an old hamster named Neil
Who, when he ate too large of a meal
Would rise from the table
And say he was able
But then he’d fall asleep at the wheel

Christmas Hamster

Dear Santa, I want a Hamster cage,
A small one with exercise wheel.
You brought one for Roger last year,
Please do what you can, I appeal.

Dad, Can I have a Hamster?

Premium Member I Wish I Was a Hamster

I wish I was a hamster 
storing food in my cheeks
or a pretty caramel mouse
that sneaks and readily squeaks

I wish I was a lizard
or a horn toad
running in the desert
with a heart of gold

Can you believe this amazing crazy limit Nightingales flap their wings 60 times per minute Holy crap that's faster Faster than a hamster When needing to pee they perform like a gymnast

Premium Member Hamster

Hairy little rodent,
Happily nibbling seeds.
Hungry, he stuffs his cheeks,
Hoarding food for later.
Having rested all day,
He now proceeds to play.
Hear him now on his wheel.

Sinister Tightwad In Westminister

Sinister Tight Wad In Westminster

Someone sat that he became sinister,
When called tight wade in Westminster;
Where he did go,
Was called a weirdo;
In plate he had placed his pet hamster.

Premium Member how hamsters talk

Onward steed! Warrior Hamster said with a snap.
The rooster stepped in doo-doo and yelled out “crap!”
Hamster did not care, he had heard bad language before.
It was part of how hamsters talk when they go to war.

My Hamster

When I got my hamster, 
I was really happy. 
I couldn't keep my happiness in. 
I loved my hamster 
As much it can be loved 
She looked at me, 
She squeaked at me! 
I named her little Laila! 
I kept her, and gave her love!

Cheeky

There must be more to life than this,
I heard a hamster squeak.
All I do is sit around
With food stuffed in my cheeks.
I’m fed up with that wheel, too.
It doesn’t keep me busy.
Why do people think it’s fun
To make a hamster dizzy?

Top Ten Animals

I 
like dogs,
cats are nice,
rats not house pets.
Lizards, rabbits,snakes make me sweat and shake.
I would rather have turtles or pigs.
No hamster thou,
and no birds,
get a,
fish!

My Little Pets

My little cat
is a fat cat
he does chase the rat
which lives on the dirty mat

My little dog
is a loyal dog
who like to bite a log
even in the fog

My little hamster
is a scary hamster
which will turn to a monster
but it is still a hamster

How It Downloads

My day-brain opens its hamster cage;
mind finds its eyes. 
I am still downloading.  
I have a whole fictional life to remember,
otherwise,
 I might see myself as an unwritten poem.

Open-mouthed I wait, uncollected, 
for the drool of being.

eventually

adversity can be calmly detested
but you are unaware .
the debilitating comrade hamster
of unsweet transitorily wantonness
drenched in fanged firing
is motivated by your silken salvation

Premium Member The Endless Wheel

The Endless Wheel

Hamster like, I run all day,
too bad it is not for play.

I make my wheel to spin,
wonder, when will it all end.

I try to grab my tail,
but, in the end, I will fail.

I play catch up all the time,
but, in the end, I’m still behind.

Premium Member On the Sideline

What
are we all
doing here
on the sideline

damaged
needing repair
in a lineup
getting processed
waiting for a tuneup

our turn thru the puppy mill
longing to rush back
pick up the pace
speed spinning
our hamster wheel

My Cat, Motivation

My cat Motivation,
only moves when she’s attacked
by my old dog Ambition.
We keep him out back. 

My snake’s called Potential.
I’m afraid he’ll get loose. 
My turtle Confidence
is a lonely recluse. 

I had a hamster named Past,
But he bit me too much.
My goldfish, the Future?
Gone in a flush.
