A chapter in the book Worlds

Cockroach World 3

by Bill Schott


Roach Man 'proachin',

pizza poachin',

in his head a noxious notion.


Dressed up like a cock-a-roach,

he is a counter culture coach

who charms us like a potion.


He says ours lives are lived and shat,

then we die and that is that;

whereas he offers lengthy lives,

lived in darkened para-dives.


He may live beyond my days,

though I use toxic traps and sprays;

I'll likely die and then, t'boot,

return to wear the cockroach suit.
