I
dread
boredom
wakefulness
the silence panics
My life has spun out of control
Embarking on a new day is a daunting task now
I must escape from this suffocating prison before I descend further into madness....

The Millipede Parade

Left home pet sitting, I felt unlucky.
One dog got sick and days became yucky.
Vacation in Portugal
Fun loving dreamy dazzle –
Then came the millipede parade…Whoopee!

NOTE: MILLIPEDES CAN BE A PROBLEM IN PORTUGAL...A BIG PEST!...

She dubs
worn thin
sounds
that assault
bounce back
further spread
in barbed spikes
of dark and
ruby delicacy 

mutters
of consternation
furthermore, 
panics
she will
break or
go down 
in tears

screeches
 fill her
dreams
her mouth
her ears

There once was a chic, pet-sat for her bro
three little varmints Curly, Larry, Moe
The tests they set forth  
she truly earned all her worth
Nasty behavior she couldn't control  


The days pushed by 'oh so slow
Her strength it could only grow
a precious lesson received 
it's all how one perceives
patience and wisdom did flow

Adrift in this vast,
empty sea. Silent,
save for the beckoning call
of  distant gulls,
your only friend. And 
the makeshift mast and sail is
uselessly flaccid.

And beneath,
concealed
by the dangling sway, 
of muddy-
moss-green ribbons of waving kelp,
is the dark murk
of unknown depths.

Then the wind 
panics,
arousing your sail and
it swells into life
and draws you towards home....

As it nestles into her mind,
Like a untold secret,
She trembles.
As if all the hope and faith
She once had
Is slowly turning its back on her.
Fear and anxiety controls her instincts
She panics,
In an instant, she feels altered, changed, divergent... inhuman.
Like fuel,
Her heart ignites the fire
that torments her soul.
She’s furious
Her wrath, so potent, so lethal
Will eradicate those in her way....

Experiencing trials and hardships along the way,
For four years I’ve witnessed the truce in full play.
The nation’s at stake as the willow catkins in a gale,
My life is the drifting duckweed hit by rain or hail.
The defeat at the Panic Beach panics me constantly;
Passing the Lonely Bay, I feel even more lonely.
Who has ever survived his death since antiquity?
May my brave heart mark the history with loyalty.

The cat flew out the doggy door
The puppy pooed all over the floor
Well scratch my head and rattle my brain
I'm trying to think how I'll explain
That puppies need a diet of shoes
And cats don't really care for booze
Parakeets need freedom to fly
Tweety looked pretty up in the sky
Oh woe is me to be entrusted
With parts of the family-I think I'm busted
Supposed to sit their kids real soon
Yeah that will happen-on a cold day in June!...

Just what lengths would you go through
       To protect those that need you
            Love trumps all reason 
                  In every season
     Would you adopt the same view
