Puzzles
The neighbour
has a white rabbit,
and a terrier
that yaps all day long
(at that rabbit) —
and there’s an empty vase
set on the windowsill,
shaped like
an over-ripe woman
(desirous of sex).
It’s like a puzzle,
that’s missing
a few vital pieces.

Thank you, Mish. Sorry to be so late but my plate is a bit full at the moment.

I think many puzzles are like that, a bit like constellations in the sky, you have to connect the dots to find the image.
I think the dog is secretly in love with the rabbit.

I think you’re either a romantic or you know zilch about terriers. LOL!

Perhaps love is the missing piece for the dog and the rabbit.

I reckon that dog would love to eat the rabbit. Terriers don’t play well with other animals.

I like all of your odd pairings that all seem to come together in this poem!

Just like life to always be vexing us in some way.
