The Old Man Asserts His Rights
The Old Man Asserts His Rights

Shoo! Get off my lawn!
You unwashed gaggle of no-goods,
don’t you trample on my new-mown grass,
my neatly tended sward,
digging in my luscious topsoil
and raking lumps and bumps.
Be off with you!

Damn starlings.

For Express It In Eight, 12.15.24
