Working Overtime

Early Christians believed turtles
were a symbol of infernal forces.

The last remaining chelonian
to fit the description dwells
in the muck at the bottom of
a Kentucky sinkhole, except,

when he's working in complete
coordination with the demon
resident of the White House.

leave plenty of crumbs
scattered about

I swallow the last

Christmas cactus yet
to show flower buds

perhaps this year
it has nothing worth

on the wall

cozily wrapping me
in memories of lily pads
and inner-tubes
