Tally Ho!

Two weeks in the wild & the beanstalk

returns to seed. Troop ahead, even if

Toucan Sam squashes the fecund

fruits of labor’s lost. Week three,

microscopic crabs have colonized

yr pantaloons. Oops, you’re tardy
for the pitfall. Shanghai the creature

tunnel through the tiles 
of ferns.  A rattle of jewels waits
inside a teal gourd for the shiv
teeth of yellow rats.  Phantom 
colonial gets lost amidst the pineapples
& flytraps.  Sir Nobody runs the tse tse
maze for the nth time, fevered 
& dulcet, swatting moths with 
a riding crop you bought but never used.
