Do you see him, too?
Over there?
No.
Under there?
Do you see him, too?
His cane spinning between webbed fingers, his top hat askew?
Can you see him, too?
He’s hopping, just there!
He’s lingering on your brink of being awake and asleep.
He croaks and you wonder.
Do you dare wander to the place he eerily sings?
You haven’t seen him.
Have you ?
You would surely not forget him.
Look!
Duck!
Think fast!
He’s hopping above you, leering, mincing like a cat, bearing teeth to it’s trapped rat.
Distracted, he’s lapping at your finest butters and creams, sweeties and milky things.
Your priorities, your “things”, your property a game, a ruse to him.
Fickle and feigned, all too foolish.
Open your mind and see him as he is.
Learn a higher state of thinking.
Become a transcending being.
Be mindful and allow yourself to accept sorrow, change and contentment.
Be mindful, lest he’ll lap away at what’s left of you, next.
