Stinky Meanies

Have you tried your hand at creating poetry with those kits that would have you create your masterpiece using words printed on magnets which you then move around on your refrigerator? The title of this entry is sort of a reference to one of my first attempts: Evil people smell difficult.

Hey, that’s not so bad, is it? How about my next attempt: Happy dogs search and find love-humans.

I think it’s time I mention that my kit was for children. Hence this first line: If I were a bug . . .

Let’s just say that after finishing that verse, I decided to a) donate the kit to Goodwill and b) not quit my day job to become a poet. Are you ready?

If I were a bug
and my body real tiny,
I’d find a cute guy
and move in on his hiney.
