UGLY

 

Kids ran and shrieked ;
the air filled with
high pitched squeals
around a 10 foot lizard:
scale covered,
mouth agape,
tongue testing
salt sea air,
a fixed stony stare.
Man approached,
straddled and stroked
its 3 foot snout,
spread a sheet
to collect
odd cents
or Euros,
tokens to sand
sculpted art.

 

The following morning
a house brick
caved its head,
trainer prints kicked
away its tail.
A 10 foot ,
scale covered,
bug eyed
fucking dragon......
too beautiful for
this world.

About OW!
Outsider Writers have been distributing chapbooks in dark subterranean caverns for too long. The corporate presses and literary institutions have no vision. The media is irrelevant. It's time to rise into the sun!

Our Goal: Unite the write! We will join forces where we are strong, eliminate duplication of effort where we are weak and put the power and authority over literature back into the hands of the only legitimate owners: the authors and the readers.
