The cheese undressed from its packaging <br />it felt oh so bare and tawdry but hoped <br />some saviour might run run run dash <br />the cheese excited the mantis <br />showing its exposed shiny bulk <br /> <br />continually stripping the <br />suffocating red wax every pore <br />of cheese breathed anew and let <br />the air in- light shone on its rind <br />so the mantis was overcome with fear <br />but alas the greed did not cave in <br /> <br />the cheese smothered the mantis <br />drowning in its own succulence <br /> <br />the mantis savoured the succulence <br />and went into a melted fantasy <br /> <br />snowballed the fruit into yellow <br />hole skies, dangling off the moon <br /> <br />and the mantis prayed <br />as the cheese took away the problems there had been <br />and all that was left <br />was the mantis and the cheese <br />as one <br />Glory glory mantis one <br />with cheese what an <br />unlikely match! <br /> <br />Written by goats cheese & Michael Witkowski<br /><br />poem hater<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-slushy-fate-of-cheese-with-the-mantis/
