non-ode to a blister  (  retsilb a ot edo-non  )

…

 

scourge of the jogger

the ambler & i

summer’s a temptress

but irksome is thy

 

wart of the walker

the tithe of the tread

rhymer of sister

the colour of red

 

brother of rubber

a badger of me

snare of the wearing

the sting of a bee

 

fruit of my friction

the shoe & the fro

rambling batters

the dermis below

 

anachronistic

& superfluous

singing & springing

& blooming with pus

 

mole of the sockless

the toll of a plod

this little fucker’s

a burdensome sod
