head
is just a metaphor ~
the groomed lump
adorned with fake smile
has long forgotten
how to function;
how it feels
to be human.
shriveled heart in your chest;
if it can be found at all ~
without magnifying glass and tweezers
a fruitless attempt.
my stomach rebels
at the sight of you;
tempted to hurl
your lies
back in your face ~
i suggest
you wear your ass
as a hat
and see if it helps
to improve your image.

The Panda over at RuleOfStupid from the “Three Nuts and a Squirrel Crew” extended the challenge to write a poem of a journey through the human body, using the words bum or colon (i went with “ass” because it’s fun to use!), stomach, chest, heart and head. Somehow I ended up ‘describing’ a certain Politician who shall not be named here… let’s just say I don’t like him all that much. Heh.
Here’s the next one–take your time on this one…
