What Does Your Mother Say To Do
When a coyote walks past your driveway
in the middle of the day
What does proper etiquette say to do?
When a zebra steps hard
on your right foot on purpose
What does your mother say to do?
When a python grows arms
and slides you under the couch to eat you
What does Miss Manners say to do?
When a man kills your feelings
and smashes your trust into bloody bits on a sidewalk
What does your defense lawyer say to do?
