/Am I hiding in a cave...?\


Poem Artwork

 

 

Neighbors all around,

BBQ’s all abound,

Wish I could out block the sound,

Please stay away from our ground…

 

My privacy I do relish,

Getting high doesn’t interest me,

Drinking & making noise can be for thee,

Being alone the reason I don’t my camper embellish…

 

Leave me to myself,

I appreciate to stay,

On the very back of my self-imposed shelf,

Nothing do I want to do with anyone else’s soiree…

I think it is fine to have quiet time, we all look forward to it Ed as long as you do have your times when you like to socialize with others. Have a wonderful day Ed.

Ed Matlack antisocial??? I think not. Just wanting some quiet time for yourself and Rufuz does not translate to antisocial, dear friend! For me, Summertime is Hybernating time...in my cool space and out of the heat. Nothing wrong with that...enjoying yourself. Great 4th for you and Rufuz!!

So, does this mean that you're not coming to our soiree? This is a fine time to RSVP...and via a poem to the whole world, no less. Sorry you're going to miss out on all the broiled lobster tails and filet mignon. We even booked Waylon Jennings for the shindig because we knew he was your favorite musician. And I don't mind telling you that that cost a pretty penny! And I don't even like his music unless I'm drunk, and you know very well that I'm on the wagon again. You should see the cute little poodle that Sally and Bob adopted just so Woofie would have a date for the occasion. Well, I gotta go catch the lobsters and shoot the old angus...I'm going miss him, even if he did break my arm when I tried to milk him before I realized that he was a he.

Happy Independence Day, anyway, old buddy!! May the Lord's blessings be dumped on you by the truckload today!!

Now, what about that road-kill BBQ? Ma says she's tire of waiting and are coming down with Tiger Lily to straight you up!
PeeWee and myself will arrive after the dust settles.

Sometimes we just need to be alone and left alone. You've never seemed antisocial to me, my friend. God bless.

Everybody deserves some quiet time.
And we all need privacy on occasion.
But the fourth of July
Might a celebration imply
So have a beer in honor of our nation. Patrick

You tell them Ed, I don't think you are being antisocial
I enjoy my own company and prefer to be left alone at times
Great write, honest and to the point
Have a great day
