Frogged

Bill Tarlin

I pick up a book and Gerald Stern
writes about dissecting a frog
and it cuts me.
Just last night
my daughter was saying
she’d never do that.
Mr Stern can do that,
and he knows he’s doing that.
I look at the inside flap
Who has twenty five dollars
for a paper cut?
Not the frog, that’s for sure.
