Nigredo by Kitty NessMetal buckets overflow,
filled by a garden hose
forgotten in the shade.
The end of a roll of Scotch tape,
peeled off and ripped
over the serrated edge.
A warm tongue stuck to
a frozen ice cube, waits
for it to melt.
Some dogs, when they accidentally
bite, find in their mistaken action
only pleasure and purpose. 04/21/2003 Author's Note: An attempt to describe something invading and destructive but that is horrible in a natural way .
