squoting slugs

Tristan Robert Lange

gross
little slugs
oozing out their
sanctimonious slime—
 
slippery as it might be—
 
slow, shiny serenity shown
in cover of the saccharine scent.
 
these slugs, smug, are certainly literate
and they do know their scripture
to complete the theatrical picture
 
what lies beneath them
and their special  s’quoting scare-screams—
 
the wretched sound of
hissing hot dogs ready to pop—
 
is the putrid puddle
of slime’s sickening rot,
reeking retrogradation—
ruinously ravaged
by reelingly repulsive,
sanctimoniously
gross little
slugs.

  • Comment from author about the poem: The 12th Commandment: Thou shalt not squote, for thou squoteth filth! People should not weaponize Holy Scripture, but sadly, they do. Lord have mercy on us, sinners.

    Agree totally. It also closely mirrors not taking authority in vain. That’s abuse and misuse.

      Amen, my brother! On both accounts, both done far too often. Thank you so much for your time and your thoughts, dear friend! πŸŒπŸ©ΈπŸ™πŸ˜ˆ
