DISGUSTING! Another cockroach poem just ran across my page. STOP IT before it gets away on its little scribbling feet and engenders hundreds more horrible little cockroach poems; they multiply so quickly. STOMP! There. I think that ended it. Oh no! It got away!

I imagine this being about poems that write, usually after considerable wine, and read the next day before they have escaped to somewhere, and they are like cockroaches--slimy infectious creatures. I keep them though, tuck them away for they are part of me, and in the right light and the right revision might become. Become what? Nothing probably, but who knows.
