reclusive frugal miser

waiting for moment to strike

In the realm of crazy
Insanity births the face
Of the dead rodent...

The lonely gnome stares
at the dirt wondering if a rodent
will pop up to ask if there
is more fruit being grown this spring....

delicate petite
flying flitting flapping
cardinal wren rodent shrew
scattering scurrying shrieking

Race on for that cheese, little rodent, don't lose sight of the prize
Always use your size
To the best advantage, you must live and rise!...

from a distance, eyes --
feline, canine, rodent and
fowl -- on me aflame.
no matter which they are, all --
faceless -- gleam hungry and strange....

Night’s restless rodent,

                                    I just nod off all day long.

                                           I am nocturnal....

When I chance upon a lone squirrel
    The vibe hardly approaches a thrill

  You think he's cute, waving his bushy tail
    Congratulations! Here's your rodent for sale...

Cautiously, creepily,  carefully, camouflaged, calmly chewing
A rodent? Bunny? Mole? Rabbit? Something obviously dead.
Tenaciously chewing, happily chewing, swallowing their sweetness....

Orange and yellow pumpkins mock the harvest moon
Faces of imagination will carve their mortal doom
A tiny rodent mouses around the moon lit sky
Soon my favorite pumpkin will be my favorite pie...

Persnickety porcupine are you a rodent then?
Are those quills at the end of your tiny chin-chin?
To the ocean, have you ever travelled or been?
Swimming with porpoises next to your prickly skin?...

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.

Mouse House

rodent, rally, resident
not made for the winter
eats and nest


destruction complete
nibbles teeth
for nesting and eat

So scurry on my furry friend
Before you get your due
My dog is in the kitchen
And he can swallow you
He doesn’t like intruders
Those that come into his house
So scurry on my furry friend
Or you’ll be a dead mouse...

This weird, eerie rodent sparks such adoration
A trip to his park's cause for great celebration
The plaques's spread by such vermin
But I'll spare you the sermon
Disneyland, here I am, on my dream vacation!

You are a rodent
                                                      to a snake if you walk in
                                                              its territory.

Violence is an anger-loaded wagon
Inventing new man as a rodent
Often the violent acts like a beast
Lost victim’s dignity rests in garbage bin
Ego swells and explodes as bomb
Normal reason locked in cupboards
Conquest and destruction a game
Evacuation of humanity is heroism...

He is loved by the class
his words emit holy fire
of inspiration and hope
but he is a silent rodent
that eats the roots of life
of the innocents he has
king Herod of ancient
but a weird one of today
determined not to kill
but eat the chickens slowly
and their mothers as well...

Time passes, you think you are now free,
The world may not know
But the truth lies with me,
You hide like a rodent, in these rainy days
You may have fooled others, but you cant fool me
Your lies don's scar the universe,
But yourself, what a human being!
A s time might forget,
But not me...

Rabbits


Resplendent ears and tails,
rodent-like; but unlike
rats or mice, they are loved.
Renowned for Easter, they're
rumored to lay eggs; while
rural hares, their cousins,
routinely grace menus.

Curious cats play
While mice run away
Sharp claws are no fun
They pierce tender flesh
Leaving holes galore.

Rodents fear them
For they bring death
Finite is life
For small and meek.

Tides won’t turn
Nature’s way
Stays the same.

Cats play
Mice die.

Fact!...

Just like the vulture watches its prey
From atop the roof top
Scanning every moving rodent
And rotten s by the gutter,
He watches eagle-eyed,
Every car on the traffic lane.
He watches with keenness ready
To pounce on any traffic offender.
Not because he respects the law
but for self-gratification....
