ouchy-fauci

I saw the aura of millipede
Scuttle-sliding cross the floor,
Charisma in platinum...
Like a wind-winder,
Drilling its way forward.

Yes, it was magical.
Even sitting on the throne,
There I was.
(Nature does call, after all,
And I'm not so unique).

I thought to lock it down
And give it a squish -
To see if it should lose its light?
(You know: for science sake...)
And sure enough, it did.
