passing peacocks

the peacocks all have run away
with irridescent pride.
camels proved more practical
upon which folks could ride.

feed the peacocks,
dress the giants,
oil the gears on

Take off your vest
Reveal that chest
Show up at dawn
For a romp on the lawn.

native signs and slaughters

With the hair on my chest I've got
more grass than the lawn
to romp around at least
as grumpy as any beast.

RE: designing camels

I will improve the camel's shape
and flatten his unsightly back,
then shorten his legs to enable the folks
to mount without using a jack.

Woven from the wool of goats
who call these frigid regions home,
designs or frills come second
to survival in the snow.

at home among the desert dunes,
where water is a rare thing,
little boys play happily
dirty without caring.

designing camels

committes work through meetings
a method tried and true
to fumble, stumble, start again,
and never quite get through.

nights in these desert dunes
are often very chilly,
we need some afghans after dark.
(I prefer them frilly).

this desert is home to the camel,
constructed to function on sand,
each son and daughter can go without water
for months as they traverse the land.

The camel resembles a horse
as designed by a committee,
as ugly as it is mean,
which is a pity.

without a leaf to munch upon,
without a stream for chilling,
the camel chose the desert life,
the others were not willing.

Flowers in the desert
would be a precious sight,
but growing isn't easy:
conditions must be exactly right.

Rocking through the desert
to the wailing song,

I hear one can become quite ill
while traveling on these ships.
it jolts the torso, shoulders, moreso,
as well as head and hips.
