the white piece inside his head
was welcome
welcome
because it was rare
Usually there was all sorts of
things creepin an crawlin
like spiders at walls captured just right by the light an castin
fantastic plastic black mad
shadows
thatd creep out everyone but him
and he go into the kitchen and
return with small juice glasses and patiently gently cup
the spiders beneath
them
wiggle in a white piece of paper between their feet and the walls an
make them
reluctantly retire to the confines of glass
and bottled up unharmed
hed
take them outside to safety
because inside lots
of people were uncomfortable
an
more often than not they chose to either poison the spiders with sprays or
smash
them into unsightly unrevealing Rorschachs
Because some big people were fearful of small ugly
spiders
an
the way he saw it most big people were pretty ugly themselves an hed have a
time
staying himself from beating them
with his shoe
then
often
it was worth the while not to resist not to take the trouble to restrain
himself an
face the mild rebuke for beating them with his shoe
screaming Ugly!Ugly!
their mild rebuke their bruised hands over their heads protectin their heads
screaming Stop!Stop!
Are
you Crazy!
an that was usually the end of
things
hed stop
theyd recover themselves
get up
an leave
fearin they hadnt seen
Crazy an not wantin any part of it
he was a big proponent of
Earthlings
an since much of it didnt have
heroes an were seen less-than-human he brought a
human face heroically in to
play an let two-legged Earthlings stand up for themselves on
their own hind
legs when they were threatened or
subjugated
-- So
how do you like it
Its not so nice is it
to-night this began as a white piece
an for the little it remained
it was nice
