Some people are like
Roses that were afraid
To bloom but should
Have bloomed. And it
Is as if the sun became
Disgusted with waiting.

The Peacock
Out of nowhere a beautiful
Peacock showed up in our
Quiet little neighborhood.
It struts around with its
Rainbow of feathers all
Spread out. It has this call
That sounds like someone’s
Being murdered. It won’t
Let anybody near–it might
Chase them anyway.
Jumping Frogs
One day a friend of mine
And I decided to go fishing.
We packed our fishing
Gear and food to last most
Of the day. We began to
Fish from the bank when
We heard a rustling noise
In the brush around us.
Suddenly hundreds of
Jumping frogs as big
As cats came straight
For us. They looked
Carniverous, and had
Huge red sticky tongues.
We were so afraid that
We ran off and left our
Fishing gear.
