A Rough Morning

Elmo, Hannah Montana, slippery slide
Lawn mower, weed eater - where can I hide?

All I need is a few minutes of solitude.
How do I make them understand I'm not being rude?

Noise! Noise! Noise! It can make my head spin.
If I were a drinker I'd go for the gin.

What's driving me nuts is that I'VE created this stress.
And unfortunately for me my "man emotions" are currently a mess.

I love my kids, and yes my wife too.
But I'm afraid that this summer I'll lose my place in the zoo.

  1. Don't worry, Robert Frost. I'm sure your wife and kids will preserve your compound in your absence. If you were a zoo critter , you'd be a cuddly bear, whom everyone would want to pet.

  2. According to Simon and Garfunkle, "There's something happening at the zoo. I do belive it. I do believe it's true."
