Et Come Home

There on to you!!!
Your idiot brother
Hovered over a Starbucks,
Your sister was seen
Cruising Rodeo Drive.
And Uncle Henry
Got hold of a bottle
George W. Dickle
Tennessee Sippin’ Whiskey
…and you know Uncle Henry!!!
Left his “vehicle”
In the river….
They’re still dredging
Papa says he’s had it with you guys
And Mama said
She’ll leave a light on.
Your best bet is…
Head to the border
Claim asylum
Head for San Francisco
…You’ll fit right in.

                 Love
                           Auntie Grnshht

ET is branching out, I see... Broadening his horizons...

Well then, it's no wonder why San Francisco's hills are a pathway into the Pacific. I think ET would take his chances there rather than go home to such a dysfunctional family. They belong in a whole 'nuther' kind of asylum. Imaginative writing, John.
