the early bird
get something else,
beside the worm.

Fine very fine worm cotton shirt

Fine
Very fine
Like a worm
Shirt cotton threads pull
And fray
Bare skin
Pale skin finally
Appears through the gasps
Through the holes

        In the gloominess of the night
      or in the brightness of the day
        the worm a flood pillow
         excavates !

And fashioned the worm and the lark.

Happiness is nestlings well fed

Premium Member As the Worm Turns

There once was vampire named Vlad.
His life was obscurely sad.
He ate a worm,
The tide did turn.
Now Vlad is famously bad.

Premium Member Early Worm

The early worm dies a hard death
It shouldn’t have come out then
Might’ve lived if it hadn’t
The pain it incurred -

Too great to really survive

A Man Named Worm

There once was a young man from the ground.
He said, "See the lovely horehound!"
It was rather much,
But not very clutch,
He couldn't say no to the homebound.

Premium Member The Enlightened Worm

A worm that floated in a brook
spied a fish, shivered and shook,
asked himself, "Who needs
a fisherman and his evil deeds?", 
and quietly slipped off his hook.

Premium Member Worm Comuppencery

Listen, worm, to my rhyme
as you lie there biding time, 
grinning there so sweetly,
knowing you will eat me.
Know that one day, you'll die too,
and a smaller thing will eat you.

The Worm To the Bee

The worm to the bee:
The flowers you reap
are born of the soil
which is ventilated by me 
with my sunless burrows.
And every bud opening
is a flight of mine
into the very heart
of the infinite Sky.
