LIFE EXTENDING PEEVES

 

IRRITATIONS


a figurine appeared

it was twilight

or dusk

but not dawn

as i recall

just a smidgeon

from a pole

or three

shading the street


when she spoke

with ceramic

or 

vielleicht

porcelain tones

true to her ancestry

and the shaded spot

on the street


one listened

and took heed


irritation is good

she said

as long as you have a balm

to salve

whether a wound

or a scratch


and 

the mind and the art

of an arthropod

boneless 

but with heart

and feelings


irritation

indicates life

mayhap

legs asplay

and thoughts astray

while

silently

feeding

 a pet or a peeve
