Poem – Confessions of an Avid Author (or Artist) #5

I used to have

A pet

Rhinoceros Beetle.

His name was

Rocksteady.

He really liked

To burrow into

Peaches

Or roll them around.

He was really

Strong.

Once,

I caught him doing

Push-ups

With his climbing

Log.

The good thing about

Beetles

is, they don’t really

Die.

They just become

Display Pieces.

I think

It’s what he

Would have

Wanted.
