The Anomalous... Poem by RIC BASTASA

when an anomaly exposes itself
like a face
when wrinkles before did not
destroy it
soon you will tremble about
what you cannot believe

a man rises from the sea
with a tail of a dragon and his arms
soon turn into the wings of
a giant bat and if you are not
careful enough
because you have been too complacent
or too trustful in such a stupidity of
the foulest of all fools

you can be one of those gobbled up
eaten raw
like the way he had wantonly eaten
his last best friend
