Straight from the Camel's Nipples

This poem came about because of a very brief and weird dream involving camel nipples? Don't ask haha.  Anyways, enjoy:


*************
I turned and watched the bosom sway,
heavy with fresh milk and irony.
The pregnant thing did betray

a bit of remorse
at her sorrowful state ---
I touched them gingerly.

The aureolas darkened,
growing large.
Lactation.
