The neck
The knees
The ribs and thighs
Are all good spots, it's true
The hips
The pits
The feet and sides
Are also good ones too

Don't go in the water
with a cut upon your skin
Don't go in the water
if you want to keep your limbs
Don't go in the water
It's been raining all this week
Don't go in the water
Not the river, bay, or creek
For if you go in the water
You will be the catch
To the very small bacteria
Entering through your scratch

There's a hurricane a comin'
Rollin' right on in
Churnin' and a turnin'
With it's counter-clockwise spin
Batten down the hatches
Go and buy the beer
There's a hurricane a comin'
It is that time of year

A simple request
Caused great unrest
And was much too much to ask

Give some respect
Instead of neglect
Was simply to hard a task

I could not remain
Inflicted with pain
I walked on out the door

Now you're alone
Just you and you're phone
***** I give no more

You use it to spew
All of your views
Continually at me

Out of your grip
You let me slip
Now please just let me be

Hide and Seek
Peek-a-boo
Come find me
I'm just for you

L eaning
I  nto
F orward
E volution

Sound bites
in the hush.
It's teeth
sharply rough
