amphibian seduction I see
like all that my misreadings can be
when reads are simply reds,
not colors in my head

and waters flowing
becomes wafers floating
and the sewer I read about
says shower with a shout

'tis a diff'rence I must say
between fled and bled and guy and gay
just eyes cannot behold the words meant right
from the words of a mean write

and the 'Sultry Voice of Fog'
is read the 'Sultry Voice of a Frog'
amphibian seduction I see
like all that my misreadings can be


Thanks to TD and my increasingly poor eyesight for this write.

I love it when you play with words.
Great read.
