Herbert Nehrlich Poems

At last she had arrived, hips swinging.
Boobs leading,
heels clicking,
unhurried, rather strolling.
...

A flower, young and pretty pink
stood where a sailor took his drink.
The sailor was a stocky man
and blocked the wind as big blokes can.

with a grain of defiance
a great book of true science

Quite ill and running a high fever
I found inside my box a beaver.
How did a beaver get inside
perhaps he was in need to hide.
