Jack Jack found a limpet in his smörgåsbord
Which clung to his nose a real odd-bod
He rolled over the payment
And scratched up his fine raiment
Cursing that damn spicy gastropod.
With no one hereabout
As above streetlight shone
“Hello beautiful”
Endurance rules you flout
Daintily peeping out
Flourishing with aplomb
By each gainful degree
Amid detritus flows
Purple petunia grows
If only all could see
Limpet tenacity
Hidden in the shadows
Survival rates are slim
In mind you never dim

MY LIFE
My life is regimented by the constant unnerving beat
Of the angel on my back.
She is my constant companion.
Her neck, intertwined with mine.
If she falters
I will die
We are intimately attached.
However, far from in love
It is indeed a love hate relationship
I listen to her every breath.
While she totally ignores me
I try every move to remove her
But like a limpet for life
She claws desperately on to my soul!
Form:
Lone Bailey was a tree hugger since the age of three
Resilient limpet, he clung on ferociously
Now labelled and rejected as a permanent pest
Bailey went his own sweet way avoiding all the rest
His favourite haunts were abandoned places and trees
Scrambling barefoot up them or on his hands and knees
To carving his initials in perpetuity
He beheld grotesque images no-one else could see
Menacingly taunting him to COME HERE AND HUG ME.
