“I wrap my soul in Frog skin”
Lime swamp
Mint mist
Cool crisp
I let it begin…
I glide through slithe
Lily pad portals
Leering trees gnarl and creep
Something beneath
From statue to stalker
Waking from sleep
Black pudding pond
Seething stale green
Cold oil liquid steams
A million amphibians scream
Within alligator dreams
down
down
down
dark deep
Where these demons sleep
Within in hells wells
Razor teeth monsters dwell
Serpent eyes
Green boiled skin
Serves the serpent of sin
Green
Steams
From seething trees
Algae gleams
From moon cast beams
Dragon flies stream
This swampland sweats…
Sleeping
Deep
A moist green dream
Crickets cry within soil
Toads toil
Within black swamp oil
Spacecraft fly fierce
Buzzing the bog
Another victim for these cunning frog
Worms
Squirm
Within soggy log
Leeches scream – silent mud
Lurking for blood
Nursing Vampire brood
This great swamp soup
Food devouring food
A million bones
A million ghosts
Human, Alien, Reptilian
Lie frozen in time
Under ten tons of sludge, clay & decay
Victims of time
Slime & bite
Here to sleep the eternal night
Never again to see the suns beam
Only to wander evermore
Within the Swamp’s dream
