Skeeter

One day brought the rain and the rain stayed on And the swamp water overflowed. Skeeters and the fever grabbed the town like a fist Doctor Jackson was the first to go.

The tire bumped on gravel, skeetered across the road, crashed into a barrier and popped me like a cork onto pavement.

They skeetered out and then made an elegant racing turn and skeetered directly into her.

The iceman skeetered here and there, with his brown gabardine trousers dripping over his work shoes and drooping from his hip-less waist.

Bullets skeetered across the rocks, snapping off fragments in deadly shrapnel bursts, gouging furrows in the serir around the advancing men.

A twilight fox skeetered across the car park.
