A Uppercut

Poem

By K.A. SmithPublished 12 months ago 1 min read

Yup,
Life's Karate trained
To kick your butt,
If I drew.
There imagined me
Winning by luck and
A fiasco
Acting as a bee.
As animals,
Brains luring,
Suing... or "Jiu Jitsuing."
Feverishly kicking and
Confusing Mr. Redd,
My nose, my eyes, my head
Gypping...
Ha Ha Ha
Ha-choo!
