Violent Thoughts












Oh Slug!
Whose moist supple body
insinuated itself through a slender gap
secretively slipping on a mucusoid path
furtively

Oh Slug!
No welcome moonlight
revealed your rasping radular
ravaging my hopeful harvest
of cucumbers

Oh Slug!
I will relocate you, expose you
on this crevassed concrete
for some tightly feathered
blackbird's snack

    I hate slugs they always nibble (I accidentally typed nipple at first, that would be quite the sight..no?) at my plants.

    Love the poem!
