I am stuck in a lizard fantasy,
yes, a lizard fantasy -
scampering with lizards, I am
free -
free to dart and dash.
Having no direction -
my true persona is
released.
Ahhh -
Rushing under bushes, I am
protected -
from day vulchers
and dream suckers.
I’ve elegant toes,
a lovely, swishing tail
with
intricately woven spots.
Dare to look and you will
see.
I dazzle my observers,
but I don’t need
to
interact with them.
They can’t catch me -
examine my skin, judge my exterior,
look for flaws -
and wonder what’s wrong with my insides.
In my reptile skin,
reptilian brain
is acceptable matter -
scurry away, I may,
from scrutinizing eyes,
dream suckers,
day vulchers,
disorders of any kind -
my chameleon interior
vouched for, loved and respected.
I’m stuck in a lizard fantasy,
it seems -
for awhile crocodile.
