THE PLUSH BEAR

for R.A Lafferty, and Snuffles

A nightmare dreamed 1994/8/3 by Chris Wayan


Class invaded! Big plush bear--
Rump and head with clashing brains.
Bear at least our art-prof says.
Pig we snicker. Pig to us.

Plush bear dances porkishly,
Mimes playing with Professor, til
Plush bear stretches--stretches--more--
Ten feet! A bear should stick to four.

That's one elastic bear!
Her fur never burst.
Two souls hide inside that plush.
Let's look in there...
You first.

IN THE MORNING
So my hide hides two squabbling souls... or more.
But why? And who are we?
I'm scared to peer in bear-jaws, to see.
As I should be. As I should be.
