Poem #216

the lizard pumped up from the ground
he was a tough lizard like the others
but the human child caught him
with a simple piece of long grass
created a loop for his neck
the human child cradled him gently
he attempted to bite the human child
he was let go twenty minutes later
in a place far from his favorite rock
he didn’t feel so tough anymore
