Clean!
Once a poor family, but clean.
Became most solidly bourgeois.
And very nearly meticulous. Save
for Uncle Rothka, expiring
the old-fashioned way
at Madame Clairette’s blood-red-
taffeta Establishment. 2d
heart attack. New, jumpy,
Asst-DA riding with the cops,
insists dish-
eveled mess be
labeled CRIME SCENE!
Underpants tonged from the
soft carpet and placed in ev-
idence bag: Tech’s sniffy face!
The DA grilled young woman
implicated till she retched.
Word filtered to the family through
Mayor’s Office. I, summoned by
Aunt-Trio then, refused to show
my treacherous drawers, though
promising to have
all new ones sent
via Amazon Prime!
Who just threw in
Frodo ones as premium.
So, my girlfriend laughs her ass
off at them, and at my fuss-
budgety tribe generally.
In summary:
Imitating Betters, even so,
one freakin onerous task!
Here in Landa-Free!
(Though Net, strangely, helps.)
