The Escape Volume Two Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

The Escape Volume Two



The Great Escape
When the police arrested a pair
of robbers, a mad cow came scampering,
chaos the robbers legged it.
One was quickly caught,
the other ran into a zoo;
where the police shot an elephant
and wounded a giraffe,
(being big when bullets fly is a drawback) .
The bad guy was trapped
when he fled into an art gallery.
collided with a landscape painting,
destined for the local jail's reading room
depicting a forest.
The painting parted,
as the red sea;
inside he hastily sprinted to
the nearby woods,
whence he couldn't escape;
and had plenty of time
to ponder what God was
thinking of when he created
the tiny house ant.
