Singles Life, Personal Ad

I couldn't stand the heat, so I got out of the oven
I couldn't open the door, so I passed underneath
Hunger drove me to eat what clothes I wore
Nakedness drove me to seek firmer shelter
A horse received me
But turned me out without digesting
A goat tried to receive me
But found me hard to swallow
Then I came upon a lady, you could say she was a fox
Though such I wouldn't venture, never placing in a box
Ever quite so vast a vixen, and into her mouth I ran
At the customary speed for a gingerbread man

This poem/personal ad, which generated *zero* replies, is referred to as "my lived and dreamed autobiography in verse" in my groundbreaking work, "Monstrous: The Autobiography of a Serial Killer but for the Grace of God"

Was kind of hard to get to with no title on it. I did enjoy the work though. I found it very much worth the effort to get to.
