in a jar



by genghis gilgamesh



walter had a dinosaur
he kept it in a jar
every time it sang a song
walter smoked a cigar

mrs miller lived next door
and disapproved of walter’s pet
she never carried an umbrella
when it rained, she got wet

sheriff john barker
at night patrolled the grounds
he kept his eyes peeled like a cobra’s
but never showed what he found

they may all still be there
down by the old mill
they always keep their secrets
and always take their pills
