Family
Beryl called a family meeting when Carl left her
and the babies for a hootchie-cootchie dancer.
Yeah, you read that last right.
She needed babysitting to go out looking for a job.
I announced it wouldn’t come to that.
I had gone to announcing school and gave everything
a resonant knowledge and wisdom.
Well, it didn’t. Carl back in the neighborhood
for a gas survey team, Beryl baked chocolate
chip cookies, and he homed in on that fragrance.
So, they patched it up then and there. Lots of
patching up in our family. But only because we
stick together.
This year’s picnic featured T-shirts saying
WE STICK IT OUT!
Since, Kirksy had been arrested for Indecent Exposure,
some were for editing the message, but Beryl said
you can’t stop what people say anyhow.
