Two Squirrels Discussing Poetry

Well, y’know,
If it don’t make my tail dance…..
But…but…
If it’s so long
I have to drop my nuts to read it….
Yeah---Yeah
and I hate it when I hafta run back to the tree to look up a word
and those “rhymey” ones
that think “tweet – tweet – tweet” 
is a rhyme scheme
OH Yeah, !!!!but those ones – y’know
That sooth the heart
And inflame the mind
Curl the tail
And make me forget
Where I buried my nuts.
Those lines I whisper
In a chattery way
To my honey
As we cuddle 
In winter.
OH….THOSE!!!
DAMN…..
AIN’T POETRY A GAS.
