Instinct (Free verse) by nentwined
Yellow tomcat lies with a siamese Summer heat and pheromones blinders one track mind chugging train black spewing clouds of ignorance spores drifting on a wind-less day infectious on touch a heady call of aroma arousing illusion bodily pleasure need to sate and finished yellow tomcat climbs from the unmoving siamese, neither observant of flies or other stages of death.

Up the ladder: A Parable Of War
Down the ladder: Sublime Street Morals
