Sharing Poetry (and chicken with a possum)




Through an open window the smell of tasty chicken grabs the possum's attention.

My friend splits her stomach open and destroys the furniture with her ferocious laugh that thunders through the house.

The possum runs, herded by the natives, into my bedroom and out onto the balcony.

He eyes the banana tree, wondering if its too far, and timidly takes a leap of faith.
