a poem in my pocket

*linked to d’Versepoets on Bjorn’s invitation to write about fables

in new york city

(comics doing time)

humanoid turtle

teenagers fight crime

creative license

is running wild when

green vigilantes

entertain a child

japanese fables

american made

practice martial arts

toy market stealth raid

such is modern art

in renaissance style

masters mutated

art history’s on trial

moral of this tail?

save the pet turtles

from mutagen ooze

keep out of sewers

beware ninjutsus!

Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, Michelangelo
