Poetic ammo, not the local rappers.

Paid my tuition fees, renewed my library cards and did not skip even one class. Feeling like an accomplished human being, I headed to the post office to register myself as a voter (actually I had a postcard to mail). Then the lazy fucker told me I’d have to wait till the “witness” comes back from lunch break while he’d dig for the forms. Tough to be a responsible citizen eh? I was pressing for time so I told him I’d come another day.

I saw a dying baby lizard on the bathroom floor. Feeling a little morbid, I thought I’d take a picture of it. By the time I got my camera, it had miraculously come back to live and was crawling up the pipe. I don’t know why, but at that moment, I had a sudden urge to take picture of my soiled sanitary pad. Even had a flash of inspiration for some poem.


The lizard,
Not dead.
My pad,
Blood soaked.

All end with Ds. I’m like so talented.

p/s: That’s not my soiled pad. That’s also not the aforementioned lizard.

    If i may Kim……..,

    The lizard is not dead,
    its fate does not end today,
    the pad is wet,
    its blood soaked red.

    i’think i feel sad,
    calling off work today,
    life can be a mess,
    but i’ll fight it till i’m dead.

    There was a period
    It was red
    There was live eggs
    Then they were dead
    Lizards are good
    Lizards are cool
    Pads of blood
    Are not for eating..fool

    somehow I heard a lot of kwai loh, especially the Aussies refer the lizard as gecko.

    hmm, gecko is much cooler :P

    Spiller - Gecko is a type of lizard. Genus Gekkonidae! Specifically having suction cup type feet. (Well, Setae feet … lots of suction cups).

    Oh gees! I am such a NERD! Pttthh! :-P

    Great poem ST. I can’t follow that one! :-)

    This has GOT to be the weirdest post I’ve ever seen here.

    lizard, small, soft.
    Pad, wet, sticky.
    Attack, lizard.

    Just to get in the mood of the poems:

    Gekkonidea,
    Feet of Setae,
    Sticks to the wall,
    Having a ball.
    Sticks to the roof,
    Acting aloof,
    Sticks to the pad,
    Ewww, that’s bad!
