PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Things don’t always elicit the correct visceral response.  I was watching a Betty Boop cartoon and then I felt inspired to give my dog a bath.  I really doubt that was the message I was supposed to be getting.  I mean, she was wearing an apron and trying to bath a dog but she did doll herself up with the lipstick and the makeup.  She is kind of cute but prurient thoughts were escaping me.  I was more worried about her getting the puppy clean—and getting my own dog bathed.  My dog seemed to view the cartoon with suspicion.  I guess he realized the horrible thoughts racing thru my mind.

The struggle is real

we push aside brazen lust

take care of business
