"scrat" poems
Spiders in my basket
spiders in my soup
spider on my eider down
spiders loop the loop
Spiders on the ceiling
now crawling down the wall
there's a spider on my pillow
someone hear my call
Spiders changing faces
never far from ear
scrip and scrat the little feet
tell me spiders are too near
I sleep with my mouth open

I'm the muskrat
Hairy, hazy, crazy, rat tailed
Pretty coat
I'm a rodent, a little flea, a pesky, petty problem, what you gone do about me?
I'm the muskrat, the mouse who flossed his teeth, fat when necessary
Far fetched and reaching, digs fast, burrowing, the scrat, the muskrat, low, low voiced, low creeping, smokey scrat ain't good for crap, the muskrat,
Breath Jim bean and smoke green, tell bad jokes just to be mean
Grrr urrnn, grrr urrnn raunchy, metal and eggs in the morning , coffee with cream, conditioned, spitting and ******
The muskrat

I forgot my headphones.
Taking the 6AM bus.....and no headphones...
Brilliant!
I look out the window with a cold hard stare.
The bus accelerates from the station.
Vroom glug glug glug Vroom! glug glug
Vvvrrrrrrmmmmmm
It leaves and makes a sharp right turn at the corner.
The passengers make no effort to stay still in their seats.
They are asleep.
Chomp....chomp..gulp....chomp
The passenger two seat across from me eats a bag of chips.
Sssssssstttttttt
We stop.
Ssssttt. KER-SQUEAK!
The door slowly opens.
Clip clop Clip Clop Clip
A business woman walks consistent steps similar to a metronome click.
Behind that make-up is a woman who is still half asleep.
Ssssstttttttttttttt Vrrrrmmmmmmm
SNAP...SNAP.....POP!
Her gum clicks to her tongue as she flips out a magazine from her large Coach Bag.
scrit scrat scrit scrat scrit scrat
As an old man rubs to nickels together;
staring down at the platform with his hand rested on his leg.
Bump....Bump..DING
My stop is up.
Where has the time gone?
I fell in love with these sounds.
My ears didn't even have to make love to music.
Why should anyone ever want to drown sounds out?
That's our problem.
We drown this world out.
But the world is beautiful when it wakes up.

🍀After 20yrs , Scrat finally got his nut.. but still don't know what exactly to do with it ... He's happy & he own but it's all about the story that has no end & no boundaries ... just like our lives Do not give up on dream of goals until your dreams give up on you ...🍀
