Moving The Office

.


The orthopedic surgeon I work
for was moving to a new office,
and his staff was helping transport
many of the items. I sat the display
skeleton in the front of my car, his
bony arm across the back of my seat.

I hadn't considered the drive across
town. At one traffic light, the stares
of the people in the car beside me
became obvious, and I looked across
and explained, "I'm delivering him to
my doctor's office."

The other driver leaned out of his
window. "I hate to tell you, lady,"
he said, "but I think it's too late!"

1) The queen of death; she crawls on your stairs,
She's always so lonely, no mate in her lair.
Her children, they leave home with such haste
For fear that their blood this new mother will taste.
On silken cord, her daughters await,
For men in their homes meet a similar fate.
Dark as new moon, her crimson belly tells time,
Her mate is passed on, he won't tell of her crime.
If you see the black maiden, you must run in fear
One prick from her needles and pain is quite near.

What are they?

I'll find a tempting rural spot
Where mayhap pleasant flowers will bloom,
And there I'll shape a charming cot.

Where bees sip nectar in each flower,
And Philomel on hawkthorn rests
I'll shape a rustic, sun-kissed bower--
A bower meet for angel guests.

Then she who lives and loves with me,
Cheering our days of calm repose,
Sole monarch of the flowers will be--
For Myra is indeed a rose.
