Ooze Poems

Zoo Haiku

If the grass outside
the zoo doors were sky, the smoke
butts would be the stars

Zoo Limerick

Another midday at the ooze
Singin' "I'm Born to Lose"
I raise up my drink
and before I can think
I've barfed all over my shoes

Untitled

Once upon a time...
Once. Up. On. A. Time.
Time
Timeless
Less time
No time
Where?
Where does it go?
Air
Up into the air
Absorbed by the motion
Of this massive spinning orb
Spat back
At the Sun

But here
It is all around me
It weighs me down
Fills my lungs
Drowning me
