Poem using 5 words

Brian gave me five words to incorporate into a poem: plunger, cumulonimbus, pimple, Hindu, and shammy.

Here is what I wrote:



Snow-capped apex of a pimple
Reaches upward to a golden sky;
This blemish on my left-cheek dimple
Pierces a cumulonimbus cloud – and my mind’s eye.

I climb the plump white dome,
A plunger in my hand;
This suction-scepter on the cone
Explodes zit juice upon the land.

Top removed, volcanic spill,
White goo and blood course down the hill;
Red Hindu scar on my forehead,
A shammy cleans where I have bled.

Bert comments on the risks...

... involved with public entity risk pools, as they apply to education finance:

"Public entity pools are those that are available for trashy people to let their children swim in, without swimmies--when the kids do their dirty deeds, the public suffers e-coli and other maladies. School districts will only allow public use with verification of Hepatitis-B series vaccinations."
