The Lakeness Monster


The Lakeness Monster

I circled the lake as I often do.

Hadn't seen anything new.

As I came around a bend,

I saw the Lakeness Monster

overhanging the lake's end.

It had fallen from its family tree.

Remained as close to shore

as it could be.

I walked right by, unafraid.

I'll tell you why.

When the Lakeness snaps,

it loses part of itself.

It doesn't hurt anything else.
