Creatives Need Each Other

Sometimes they need each other & wine

& cheese & warm bread & meat & smoked salmon dip & Flamenco guitars

& conversations in the dining room

& on the porch with the ghosts of deviled eggs.

gin-bottle green

the patience of

the blowfly


~John Pappas

Why Did God Make Blowflies?

Little maggots wriggling on fresh meat

The blowfly has laid her babies

Now isn’t that so sweet?

God intended all his creatures do

Go forth and multiply

That is his golden rule

~Gaye Hemsley

two front orange teeth

crooked they're overlapping...

eclipsed beaver moon

        verandah edge

      a slug, poor chap

      pressing forward

  push-press-push-press

~Rupa Anand

if you're not expecting

a headful of snakes

well well
