The Demon of Sludge

The Demon of Sludge

A Poem by Margo Seuss
"

I was inspired to write this after the plumbing beneath my kitchen sink was backed up.

"

His slime is crusty, corpulent with goo.

He’s a glutton who gorges on rancid stew.


Fingernails and boogers that slip down the drain,

Become one with his flesh; his life is arcane.


A basilisk who bathes in the sludge of the sewer,

His odor malevolent: the stench of manure.


The demon doth possess your kitchen sink,

His belching bulk besmirching your drink.


Call forth the plumber; the exorcist of pipe,

To banish this devil of grit and of tripe.


T’way! T’way! from the creature’s jowls,

The exorcist doth enter it’s stinking bowels.


Flee from your township; escape the drudge,

Never return to the Demon of Sludge.
