ANIMALS - a daily series of poems with illustrations by @bennettitalia

in #poetry • 7 years ago (edited)

IBIS AND PIGLET

Subconscious flashback.
Hieroglyphic insinuation.
Angry, with no apologies.
Tame: I’m easy.
Defensive stance.
Deliberation.
What is this thing?
Meat and feathers.
"Nice weather we’re having."
Symbol and experience square off.
Pigs are people. They’re people.
Food.

These poems are adapted from an art book I made awhile back. Check out the rest of the series so far, if you like:
