sammy and jerry


by genghis gilgamesh




sammy was a snowflake
jerry was a jock
jerry walked into sammy’s room
but forgot to knock

you have no call to be here
sammy stoutly said
i have sailed my ship for hours
and wish to go to bed

jerry was from columbus ohio
and wore a black baseball cap
sammy was from san mateo
and took afternoon naps

there were many other humans
in the building where they resided
some were enlightened daily
and others were blindsided

the world turned on its axis
the sun devoured the moon
jerry went back to chicago
and quickly changed his tune

o ye of little faith
with your burgers and your fries
look not into the mirror
because you might be surprised
