CHAMELEON (Free verse) by Jeremi B. Handrinos
Green on green
Her personality's obscene
Although granted
Her ways are keen
and wonderfully hidden
from my view
but always present
and right on cue
Acquaintances many
When friends are a few.
Living floor flowing
Perception is bowing
I must keep going.
Her face has no focus
My hand is pointing
My elbow sagging
My pet wolf's tail is wagging
Thor rests his hammer
No more
backyard cantrips
No more
massive rabbit slaughters
Every color within each other
No more brother
or a mother
My tiny tight gloves
are testing the dirt
In my hinderance
I stoke the hurt
Give me back my will
Or I'll take you to
the fucking cleaners.
