Took a lazy old possum-roll
away from summer
We lay in the tall grass
trying not to make a sound
Winter arrived quickly
as a bright blue sled
Despicable as that disgusting skin
that forms on hot chocolate
if you let it sit too long
Verify your payment amount
All she had was a two-tone Olds
and a can of lemonade
Why the neighbors’ laughter
was always so annoying
Pushed me up over the fence
but my coat was caught
Cold as cardinals on a dumpster
in February
And the officer shone his flashlight
through the driver’s side window
