Haiku: Crocodile Tears
though croc may look sad
lying alone on river bank
eating life brings joy

Poet's Notes:
In the Malaysian language and culture, the phrase "land crocodile" is commonly used to describe a "playboy."

The Elephant In the Room
His steps are heavy
Yet he is invisible
The panic sets in
Take him for a walk
Leave him some where safe and sound
To find his own way
The grey, dreary, day
Sputtering and spurting now
Big crocodile tears

The sky’s face goes pale
as rock-like crocodile tears
fall and bounce around.

hanky to dry eye
I join the thick drift
mourning my foe's death

Damsel in distress,
she plays him like a fiddle-
They're crocodile tears.
