Sorrowing
she sadly searches
shards surface
soon
sedations sends
sin scurrying....

Scurrying sandalless soldier's
Soles slowly scarred,
Slipping somewhere,
Scattered stone shards,
Shattering soft skull.

Autumn
crunches under foot
blowing wind emerges
sending ground rodents scurrying
new fall.

Scurrying about
From dark corner to corner
In shadows it hides

Seeking its breakfast
Finding crumbs along its way
It survives again...

Scurrying people
windy city wind whistling
Wet animals flee
Blue thunder, silver slick streets
Hued blooms close their perfumed rooms....

Scurrying about...
Darting here and there... panicked
Whimpering feebly... 
Brave predators lick their lips...
Caged, trapped... helpless... caught fast...

Long Black Beetle
Today I am
A long, black beetle
In a supermarket
Scurrying
To primal mandates,
Obscene on the shine
Of polished plans,
Not knowing
That bigger traps
Have room
Like freedom....

Only In the Dark
You enter and leave his house
Only in the dark
Like a  scurrying mouse
You enter and leave his house
When none can notice
Self respect you lack
You enter and leave his house
Only in the dark....

Rain Dance
Dry spell in spring
 A little rain would be nice

Barnacles to the ceiling cling
Wave taller than a two story house
Folks scurrying like scared mice

Squeaking half drowned mouse 
Current throw of the dice...

Premium Member Her Terror
Through a veil of anxiety, sharply cuts her moan of terror. Alone, her expelling breath reveals the place where she is hiding. Across the room again the sound- - a playful mouse scurrying.

Premium Member Nowt Under the Bed
No night iz, 
under moons that drip ;
in too rotten boxes, 
and scurrying bones 
that trip blind rats; 
the spilt wine red
reflects the centuries;
you rise, immortal again:
Yet the shadow dissolves at dawn ....

Premium Member Unworthy
As he, reeling, roamed the back streets

the grimy alleyways, the filth weighed on him

   He, born to privilege, was unworthy

no better -- No! the same as -- the stooped

   figures scurrying into the shadows of despair...

Premium Member Observations of a Rat
don't spit on my tail please
said rat with a summer cold
never saw children like these
brassy and so bold.

don't spit on my tail please
said oldster rat, scurrying away
never saw people like these,
never having even one good day....
