PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Take care little one 

and keep your garden clean. 

Free of snakes.

I’ll always remember your black eyes on fire,

giving off that hell light,

illuminating and projecting your lady parts

on makeshift billboards, 

held together with rusty nails, 

rotten wood, 

infested with temporary things 

and termite assurances 

from all those hairless boiling herds of fatted cows, 

meatless bulls,

locked in stables 

teaming with shit, 

covered in iridescent eyed flies,

buzzing, giving birth to maggots,

and landing on your walls.
