Chameleon

Missing image
The human chameleon
could not quite blend in.
So he clung to the wall
as parts blew in the wind.

The man of the house
arrived home too soon.
One option a window
he exited the room.

Thank God his excitement
so quick to deflate
allowed him a foothold
to patiently wait.

Then around the corner
in terror he saw
a lone patrol man
the dreaded Johnny Law.

His skin was near the color
of this white washed brick.
So he didn’t move a muscle
and pondered Zen of being thick!

He nearly escaped detection
but wile he hung there still
along came an erection
that stiffened up his quill.

This upset the balance
that held him to the wall.
All that was left for it
was to weather the fall.

He thought, this is my last affair
when he hit the ground so hard.
Screaming, he grabbed his clothing
and started, running across the yard.

He could hear the angry husband yell
as bullets whizzed passed his head.
He thanked god, for saving his ass again
never more to stray from his bed.
