A Harrisham Rhyme for Potlatch
Experiment Gone Wrong by damommy


Today I had a crazy notion.
You'll not believe what I just did.
Laid out the things to make a potion,
develope something that would rid
every biting bug’s devotion,
resting on my skin forbid.

Next thing I knew, it started bubbling,
tootling noises never heard.
Growing fast, it started doubling.
Goodness me, think something stirred,
slurred right past the lid.  So troubling.
Don’t try this!  Just take my word.
