Roach

By Mikaela Pedlow

Sporadically rocking on its brittle brown back,
Antennae and legs sprawling this way and that,
It was shrouded alive by a square one-play piece,
Which muted its movements of fierced frenzied flee -
A premature pall for a fiend and a fow
Encroaching on freshmen at UPenn this fall.

    i wouldn’t have guessed this had been interesting a handful of years ago then again its funny the way in which time adjusts the manner by which you respond to a variety of creative ideas, many thanks with regard to the post it truly is relaxing to browse through something intelligent now and then instead of the customary rubbish mascarading as information sites on the web, cheers
