 THE TRAVELING LIFELONG BUSH POET

The Hot Lizard

By Terrence michael Sutton, www.PoetryPoem.com/aussiepoet    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

It was a chilly rainy day out in the bush
So under a giant gum tree we lit a fire..
Throwing logs and branches onto it
That we stated with dry sticks and brier..
We sat around it on logs we'd placed about
That were still dry and large enough for sitting..
And when ever the fire needed a little more
We'd add more to the fire hot and spitting..
We sat out of the rain talking of a better day
One bloke threw a log on that was hollow there..
And as this log got hot enough to really burn
Inside it was a big lizard choking on the hot air..
As he sat there with legs apart out it come
Half burned and not happy to say the least..
And it then flew right up his working pants
And he screamed as if bitten with a beast..
The lizaard now was still in shock near his balls
And this bloke danced a real merry country jig..
Yelling out oh help me God trying to undress
As this lizard it was not small but pretty big..
The lizard did the same jig inside his pants
And we all fell on the ground laughing ever so..
He rolled and he jumped and tossed around
Screaming out for it to get out and let him go..
Laying on the ground still yelling it flew out
And it took off up this largest big river gum..
And he lay there still screaming that it bit him
On his balls and could have swallowed some ..
Unable to stand we rolled in laughter still
As the horses broke their rein and ran away..
But as long as I live I will remember when that
The lizard and him danced in shock opon that day..
