Notes About The Poem

poem written based upon this image--online poetry class assignment

Autumn's Broke in Texas

A squirrel in autumn hollered, “Dang!
This heat’s got my tail in a tang.
It’s ninety-eight degrees, y’all~
that ain’t autumn, not at all!
Where’s sweata weather in Texas?” he did pang.
