Introductions in no Order

the water chilled her
she licked her lips
"oh yes, we could get used to this..."
a smirk a glint of white and lost
from flashing shadows
of raindrops brief and barely
a snap of cracking glass in frost
this green murder-fairy doesn't bury
her victims pay the cost



each lil' wiggler has an equal shot
half of them very capable half of them laughably not
bad jaguars like to roll the bones for heroic little dots
like periods or epigrams on their own sad lots
good ones teach the kittens how to show off their own spots



henny penny brick em up
fat jungle birds we like to call dumb
peck yer own toes off into bloody stumps
chicken are for generating income
or shredding into little lumps
for chicken nuggets to dip in scum
chow down til your heart's last thump
— we'd rather eat a plum



a cutlass to caber renders a man meek
darts and arrows are pointless, one might say
a 21 gun salute signals defeat
firing squad death sentences on holy days
rattling sabers and measuring meat
humans had better change their ways
can't move too quick with lead in your feet

The Fin of Mays

Oh Moon please hear my fondest wish turn my earring into a microwave dish: I'd aim it at the Pamir Knot if I were made into a robot! ...
