Cruise-Bug
(Doomsday Cousin of Doodle)

Doodle
(flying close to the ground
under the radar
skids blindly over my house.
He has pigs’ eyes & sharks’ teeth.
I think he has a tape in his head.
He appears
-    tick    tock    -
to be blankly aimless
(whistling casually ...
grinning carelessly ..).

A message comes from behind him
(200 miles - the place of his origin)

‘Here’s the spot !
SCRAMBLE & DESTROY
Disintegrate the house.
Cut it to bits!’

***

Presently
with paralyzing roar
Cruise-Bug enters .

(House gone    home gone    people gone
 friends gone
children gone
ALL
everybody
GONE NOW! … )
