Curiosity Overcame Me
As An "Excuse:"
'Normal'--
I Found It Laying
Where "No Excuse
Is Enough..." Resides(?)
Not "Resident," Actually...
But A Crumb-Bum, A Scoff-Law...
You Know, "The Guest Who Just
Makes Himself At Home..."
Like Burrows In, Makes A Nest
Wherever He's At... There, That
SPOT. Room At The Inn...
Without The Excuse.
Because No Excuse Enough...
It's Not PRIDE! It Isn’t
Normal.
Just Out Of Curiosity,
Hmmm.
Hummingbird.
