Sex and the Rhinoceros

Sex and Sumatran rhinoceroses
So I’m lying in bed
Post orgasmic
Spent
My mind wanders
In weird melancholic ways
Letdowns feel like
The news of Gord Downie’s
Death
The passing of John Mann
From my precious Spirit of the West
And that damn Sumatran rhino
Hauntingly
A reminder of our future’s frantic
Scramble for the Black Friday Deal
A hole
Gapes open
Yawning
Fill me
Sad and longing

Will do. No crocodiles or rhinoceroses! I only like hippopotamuses. And hippopotamuses like me too!
A non-amos

Truly
Madly
Deeply
Savage Garden,
Savage beasts.
I wait,
I yearn,
To feel
The burn
You’re welcome.
yay

Please stick to writing your poems in your personal journal. Your poetry is not ready for public consumption. In time, but now is not that time.
Hmmm

Looks like
Your hole
Needs to be perpetually filled

Of a rhino
