Short Tailless Poems

When I was a kid
I shook the tail of lizards
To make them tailless!...

Murdered in cold blood,
for  refusing to  be  Part;
corruption covered,
I weep for the life cut short,
weep!for I have no one else.

Orphan I become,
mingling with vipers and lice;
In  cities of flies,
what can a tailless  cow  do?
Hope that truth shall come to light.

The compulsive 
 
Autism in the like of Julian Assange
And Greta Thunberg is a force for the good
Their passion can for them be tragic
they go to any length to follow the truth.

I had a tailless female dog, circled to find
the tail, till she got dizzy.

Obsessive people can be tiresome, have
great courage and suffer for their beliefs.
Heroes are for the quest for honesty.
We should be grateful....

She chants stirs the cauldron then coughs up a rhyme 
one toad, two dog ears, and one cats tail 
three dashes of dragon's blood, four tears from another time
soon the witches of Balsimoon will rise again to hail 
and the tailless cat will meow  to no avail 
She's a gritty kitty, what a pity   
I need to cut her tail cuz she ain't pretty

Obsession
Autism in the likes of Julian Assange
And Greta Thunberg is a force for good
But their passion can be tragic for them
As they go to any length to follow
The mania that rules their life.

I had a tailless dog, who had a mania looking
For its tail, circled till it got dizzy.


Obsessive people can be tiresome but they   
Have great courage and suffer for their beliefs
They are heroes for their quest for honesty
For what we should be grateful....
