Poetry Prompt 4: Beginnings and Ends.

[billy]

Settle down, the nursemaid’s here,
Eating a scone as she draws you a bath,
Happily spilling crumbs on the floor.

Round and round the grey mass swims,
Screeching like an injured cat,
The skull a shattered pine cradle.

Eternity: a schoolyard taunt
Tracing a line down your scalp,
Piercing the tight flesh

Happily, like your nursemaid as she
Eats her scone. But you invented her.
Rotund soother, she eases the pain.

i know you know i know todd knows you know you didn't start with j
yorra veree veree bad boy

nicely done i felt the torment.
the first stanza was really good.
