Stupid Stinky Gerbil

I am a beautiful and wonderful cat, No other animal compares to me. Everyone in my house knows that. It’s so clear to see. Other animals wish they were me. I am the queen of this kingdom And I vanquish all my foes, The rodents that used to trespass my domain Are all dead and gone, as everyone knows. And now what I say goes. I get all the attention I get all the catnip and treats I get all the pets and scratches I get all the best spots on cozy seats. I get everything, my life’s complete. But one day, while I dream away Laying in a warm sun spot An enemy invades my kingdom. I wake up and see what the humans brought. I am disgusted by what they bought. The humans call it an “adorable gerbil.” But it’s obviously a rodent, can’t you see? Rodents are our sworn enemy. What is this insanity? What have you humans done to me? Now those silly children who used to serve me Try playing Wordle with the stupid gerbil. Those children would be better off Playing Wordle with a silly turtle Not a stupid...

This Small Chrysalis



I’m feeling trapped

In this small chrysalis

Dreaming of flowers, trees,

And other things I miss.


I want to burst out of here,

Let my wings fill in just right,

So I can satisfy my need,

My yearning to take flight.


It can be isolating

Waiting in here

As other butterflies fly

Without care, without fear.


It can get annoying

When other butterflies say,

“Why aren’t you out, lazybones?

Stop getting in your own way!”


I don’t know why I can’t escape

This suffocating shell.

Perhaps I don’t have the energy?

Perhaps I am unwell?


I must give myself more time,

And perhaps much more love.

One day, I’ll leave this chrysalis

And venture to the skies above.
