slimy and naked and bewildered and by Tobias Seim

slimy and naked and bewildered and

heedlessly twitching over the concrete,

born to be disremembered
like the earthworm
escaping the clutches
of the moppet
by vanishing deep
into the soil,

but forever missing this
personal pile of dirt
big enough
to entomb
the jerking self.
