Lizards, Police And Laughter Poem by Lalithashree Ganesh

Two Lizards fell
from a tired ceiling
after a warm sunny chase

the inspector
was writing
two others
were talking
we were seated
all around
when they suddenly Fell.

And i cracked up
in laughter
while all eyes turned. looked at me
and laughter followed
serious faces became smiley
and everyone laughed for those few moments
forgetting their problems
forgetting. and laughing

i thank those lizards
for falling. on important police paper
