Pol'Tics Two - Can O Worms

Politicians are skilled at squirms
which indubitably confirms
one cannot bake
a cake from snake
by opening a can of worms

A fish stood up in AA.
Oh boy, what he had to say!
" Hi. I'm Mister Yearns,
Stay away from worms,
I got hooked after one day!"

Worms In Dirt ~ (Haikus)

Dirty worms squirming
Excavating with instinct
Wiggle brown wormy ~

Shoveling thick dirt
Accidently cut a worm
It wiggles in pain

Premium Member Worms

I saw a great many worms today
As they came out in the rain to play.
I said, “in this party, don’t partake -
You are making a big mistake.”

Premium Member Worms, Maybe Snails

      Maggots and worms, maybe snails
          look forward to them after death

      Consider that whenever
          you take a deep breath

Our Bodies

OUR BODIES

Our bodies
are practically entrances
and exits
for the open-
ended drama of gore.
Even in the grave,
worms, white
as if practically all fat,
loot us dry.

The Angler and His Worms

The most Compleat Angler that's ever been
A zillion worms he'd gleefully dangled
Lies cold and squirming, and sadly doth glean
He's feast for the worms used while he angled

Early birds get 
Worms

By birds

Worms Shall Wait

With each step: one, two, three and the next,
To the grave down thy feet thou move ahead;
Worms and all that wait there for their feast
Shall devour thy eyes, thighs and thy tired feet.

Premium Member blue worms lovely tea bath

Blue worm eased into his warm tea bath with love
The balmy weather was as lovely as the sky above
He soaked his tail, and he drank a bit of ale
A worm who was used to a sauna, without fail

Honeymoon Under Glow-Worms

Dusk bedecked as bride	
Finds clouds blocking sunny pride
And then night spread blight,
Thanks to a few glow worms’ light,
Honeymoon waxed like a tide.

Premium Member Worrisome Wiggle Worms

Worrisome wiggle worms 
wishfully wiping Wedgewood windows, 
wandering within William’s whiskers.
Wisely wriggling while wistfully waiting 
for whoops within William’s whiskers, 
wiggle worms wandering winsomely.

Corona Virus..... oh shut up or shut down? 
We are all in the same crisis run-a-round. 

With or without Trump and Brexit it's the same ole' coffin.
There's no cure for the gormless boffin.

Premium Member Smelling Night Crawlers

After the rain I started to smell them
They have a distinct odor, not a fragrance
I had to walk carefully, as to not squash them
They were squirming on the sidewalk and in the grass
Night crawlers, giving me nightmares some nights

Premium Member Animal Worms

The earthworm molds the earth
Canker worms feed slowly 
The truth in nature confirms

You may think you decide
but no, it is this way 
‘cause the worms say it is so

Worms

Mummy says I shouldn’t eat juicy wiggly worms
She said that they are mucky and they’re full of nasty germs
I never take no notice though, and when she isn’t looking
I’ll eat some scrummy worms because, they’re better than her cooking

Power to the Slime

Worm sliding round back of house,
Met, by chance, tiny soft mouse,
"How's all that dating stuff?
Dating the one is enough,
Worms stood the test of time,
Power to all our slime!
Worm love keeps us forever young,
Hermaphrodites have the most fun!"

Fishing Worms For My Father

I think I'll go dig up a bucket of worms for the day 
I'll go out back where me and the dog play 

After I am done, 
I will put the worms out of the sun 

And I'll talk to my dad 
To see if any fishing could be had 

For supper we can have fish on our plate

Worms Behind My Molars

While death nears, it's wintertime in my soul, my
Once vibrant spirit tires out, no longer can I
Run with the wind like springtime in my flesh. Behind
My molars, worms will feed when death comes, then I’ll
Sleep in the heart of the earth until a better day.

Relax Honey the Worms Will Play

Relax Honey... The Worms Will Play!

Oh honey one day,
We will both part;
To rot in graves,
And waste away:
Playing with worms,
And dancing with maggots,
As they climb all around.
Relax love all is well!
Soon we'll be down bellow,
Cavorting with the others, under the ground.
