Half way through



Yes it's day 14 of NaPoWriMo.
A reworking of a poem that you can find here. I've allowed the beast to escape again but the form is different.


If the jaguar escaped the museum

One, two, three and so on the stitches are popping
open as though suddenly snipped, ripping and breaking,
till out falls the stuffing, and the glass is smashing.
I could be a rug if it were not for the racing
of heart, lungs and wild red blood charging

down the M1, there’s St. Pancras appearing ...

...hoping not to be over-repetitive with the theme :)
