size matters sometimes

the big dog told the little dog
'the sands of time have wasted
the times of the great ones are here
and you must bow down to our fury
give me that bone'

the little dog looked up at him
'the sky is vast in its appearance
the earth is nothing in comparison
yet it exists by its own right
likewise, this bone is rightly mine'

The big dog looked violent
he was keening in indignation
my patience is wearing thin!
that cute little expression is not working!
give me that bone or shall i rip you to shreds?

The little dog let the bone drop
morphed into a massive dog
much bigger than the big dog
kiled the big dog
morphed back
and settled back with his bone.

Actually, thats not the way things turned out
but he could always dream and plot
as he sulks in his little alley spot
-if that big dog thinks he'll forget
this disgrace to the face of his little-dog race
he can think again.

Cake

hello
can you hear me
I am left behind in the land of no cake
destined to wait for a call that never comes
for a door that never opens
left behind to convince myself
that cake tastes like shit anyway

Anger

The pinpoints of anger
screamed upwards from beyonder
than beyond.

in the depths of the lake of suphur
that used to be a coherent abode
of thoughts, feelings and occasional indulgence
in mental slumber

now it's on fire
unreasonable and inexpressible
disaster after disaster
rips through and abounds
in nameless anger
nameless and gormless
tactless and careless
ripping into the outer atmosphere
destroying it's mostly innocent
provoker.

I want to apologize
but i do not know
who i should apologize to.

To me?
to him?
to the world in general?
or is anger simply painted black
while its a thing of immesurable beauty
if used now and then
in dangerous circumstances?

a conundrum as an aside
boggles my mind
for theirein lies the answer
and the solution
to the mental torment
that threatens to overwhelm me
like a storm cloud that comes up
threatening a careless boat in too-deep seas
