design drill stripes wild pander
fill shock press line pass mine
designed to fulfill a need
drilled into his head
he was wary
lest led along a wayward path
stripes of pleasurable tendencies
wild in its make-up
that kept pandering to base instincts
filled his mind lately
shocked at the direction
and pressed for a quick getaway
designed to fulfill a need
drilled into his head
he was wary
lest led along a wayward path
stripes of pleasurable tendencies
wild in its make-up
that kept pandering to base instincts
filled his mind lately
shocked at the direction
and pressed for a quick getaway
he quickly checked himself
he managed to draw the line
he got pass the time-zone
out of the mines of a timeless pit
he managed to draw the line
he got pass the time-zone
out of the mines of a timeless pit
full of clawing hordes of seekers
out for his blood
it brought a chill to his senses
out for his blood
it brought a chill to his senses
he was adamant
he had to do it
he managed to outwit them at their game
it was a big relief
he managed to outwit them at their game
it was a big relief

ReplyDeleteHank, it was hard to get beyond the smiling kitty ... I did however, to enjoy your poem.
ReplyDeleteYour words build great tension...glad they ended in relief.
ReplyDeleteReading your poem I thought more about a gold digger in Klondyke that the smiling cat... but it has to be relief when you win at last.
