Bold Critters

I saw a possum hangin' upside down last night I saw a possum hangin' upside down last night I said ,"Possum you're a pitiful sight hangin' upside down in the full moon light Uh-huh, yessir, uh-huh." Possum said, "Old man, just mind your own Uh-huh" Possum said,"Old man, just mind your own Yessir." "Got a date at ten in the full moon light, And she likes hangin' on her head all night. Yessir, old man, yessir." Saw a big gator gnawin' on a bone Uh-huh Saw a big gator gnawin' on a bone yessir Said. " Mister gator, who you chewin' on? I hope you ain't gnawin' on my friend, John. Uh-huh, yessir, all right." Gator said, "Old man, just mind your own uh-huh." Gator said,"Old man, just mind your own yessir." "If I turn around and you ain't gone, It'll be you that I'm gnawin' on.- Yessir,yessir,yessir" Well, I went home and had a drink uh-huh Said, "I'm gonna stay right where I'm at - Leave the critters to their habitat - yessir, I am, uh-huh." 9-11-19 Contest: Any Poem You Want 180 Words or Less Sponsor: Caren Krutsinger
