Theres a Squirrel In the Vending Machine

There’s a squirrel in the vending machine, I’ll bet that he thinks he is very keen. He’s eating up all of the jelly beans! He’s the worst irritant that I have seen. He’s devoured all the animal crackers, pretzels and banana chips, that slacker; a thieving fur ball of a nut cracker, who has become a snack machine hacker. Such a formidable machine invader, an uninvited and loathsome raider. I wish I had baby alligator, to fix him good for stealing my ‘taters! But as I gaze upon his chomping snoot, my heart melts because he is very cute. I suppose my anger is really moot; perhaps he’d like a bite of Kiwi fruit.

Your heart is at least 100x as large as mine... As Boris Badanov used to say on 'Rocky and his Friends' -- "Kill crazy (moose and) squirrel!" Wonderful write! Cheers, Gershon

Hello M.L. Kiser, I do not think that the squirrel will like the kiwi fruit. He will enjoy the rest of the treats. in the vendor machine. Enjoy your day my friend. Be safe.
