A worm |

A worm from out the woodwork raises its ugly head and looks into the face of an ancient knowledge base. He reads from left to right; a worm he is alright and in the footnote of small print no time to reconsider or wriggle out the contract. He thought perhaps a dictator or an abuser of kind folk but just a worm, a worm, a worm, from birth until he’s overcome by the return of his outgoings. They are returned in kind sometime but I will not be witness to the killing of a lowly worm because I’ll be on the bank waiting for the fish to bite the bait from off my hook!

I like this, very unique and creative, with a lot of hidden truth I might add. Ida |
