A fat scorpion crawls towards the snake
And the shrike bird is watching from afar
To pounce on both of them
At an amazing speed
So that both of them
shall be his supper...

It was all upon you. Its all but you:
the brokenness, the wickedness,
the wilderness.

Sixteen seasons.
Obsolete for mere reasons,
taught a boy valuable lessons.

The scorpion and the frog:
its me but you....

Wandering in the desert
profanity infused me
Each word like a scorpion
the curses on fire

The sand an abrasive
the cactus a warning
The sting of my words
—killing prophet and liar

Scorpion and frog
 went on a journey
unable to swim, 
scorpion was carried by frog
journey ended
but scorpion lifted tail high
“Friend what are you about to do?”
“sting you for sure
If I do not sting you
 I can’t live”...

A red cent was just a cent,
Good old days,
Now it's bought at 110 dollars,
A scorpion was poisonous,
Good old days,
Now it's sold at 110 dollars in business,
A scorpion no worth a cent,
Good old days,like our now economy!...

on the beach word ponds
 so yon scorpion wallows
 stinking sturgeon wizardly 

wade watered watching 
fountains of King Scorpions
watching the goldfish

Scorpion

In the piles of wood, 
a lizard was nipped by the
tail with a stinger.

Eagle

A pair of wide wings
flapping in the air swooped down
upon a serpent.

Alligator

Fangs in the river
quietly waits for a prey, 
attacking the duck....

Scorpion sting is more painful
than the venom of a snake;
headache,cold,fever coupled
with peppery feelings.

On lifting the old wet brick,
It moves swiftly to 'bite me',
Scorpionegge sensation flows
through my vein to Gwen.

 A chasms depth, intuitively lunar
The sum of my parts, I wish I understood sooner
For in me, the Moon is an ephemeral form
The convergence of water and air is a perfect storm
Inside the eye of a raging hurricane
Dwells a scorpion that lives to heal others' pain...

Did you hear about my pet scorpion
Who was a world chess champion
If he doesn't like a chess move you're planning to do
He will put the stinger to you
So in every match he competed
He would remain undefeated
You may ask why I would keep such a pet
I haven't figured that out yet...

Pegasus on wings will fly
Hercules in strength nearby
Seven sisters dancing stars
Saturn rings,red glow Mars
Mercury avoids scorpion tail
Venus and virgins follow trail
Fresh water poured Aquarius
Nearby to scour is Uranus
Fish swim out new solar race
Original jewels alignment face.........

Scorpion is crying among
The trees behind the pilled weeds;

Dreaming and drinking with ecstasy
Where the earthly angels as conquered
Knights watched her from the Orca of Faytherin,

Which the melting ground seemed
To grow in fire and nothing was left

Under the faithful umbrella 
Of a crazy lover....

Once upon a whim
When noting how the limb
of a tractor, under-tucks
the feed it raises up,
It seemed as though it goes
Akin to an elephant’s nose.

When later the machine
Departed from the scene
With scary points hung in
beneath the folded limb,
Its appearance was akin
to a giant scorpion....

A scorpion stings, does not massage
A snake bites, does not lick
Water runs down-hill
Clouds are mobile in the sky
God is invisible and holy

If you see scorpion that massages
Snake that licks its victim
Water that flows uphill
Clouds that live in trees
God that is seen and worldly
Then introspect...
