The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Sour

Elixir of the gods
with a hyena’s bite,
leaves your tongue in knots
and your face a sight.

Sheila’s lemon surprise,
oh, concoction rude,
will shrink your eyes,
leave you wrinkled and screwed.



Line count: 8
Rhymed abab
