autobiography of a minor hood

Sometimes you look at a picture, and it screams "prompt!".

autobiography of a minor hood




well, you look like you were constipating.
you think i stole and ate your fried chicken wings?
today is a saturday, you hate calendars, remember?
we don't mess around with tequila on saturdays.
moreover the blackbirds have flown the pie.
yeah it looks bad on you, klutzy and all
but really you should saw off that shotgun
makes it easier to conceal you know.
however you still look like a mafioso with a bad eye.

now let's go get a drink.

This sounds like some really bad advice...
maybe tequila on a Saturday is a better choice than sawing off the shotgun.

Ha, it seems to have ended in a friendly way! I do hope the shotgun was put away!

I can hear this as dialogue, the cat just talking its way out of whatever it seems to have stalked right into. Cat dialogue is snappy. :)

Funny, I think. I like the blackbirds flew the pie and the bad eye. The shotgun part weighs heavy.

Can picture my little ones, in this cute, but smart poem. Especially, as they tag team me at nighttime, as I am about to call it quits for the night.
