Tiny Orbs

Six AM… Wake to a ruckus,

Fell asleep in the recliner,

Dog under the chair,

I raise and lower the lever,

To discover there,

The dog peed in the carpet,

The Bed Bugs bite my back,

Very bad news,

The neighbors smoke crack.

I think I’ll move to Manilla,

Grab me a pillow,

And sleep on the roof.

Merry Christmas Eve.
