RAPPROCHMENT ATTEMPT

The terrier who lives next door
does not like me. He considers
my presence in our backyard

a personal affront. Why? I sometimes
ask him from the safety of my side
of the fence. What have I ever

done to merit such fury?
His answer is given in such filthy
vocabulary I choose not to write

it down. Yes, I say to him, it's true
we disagree about foreign
policy, the solution to the national

debt, and the need for tax reform,
but can't we at least
treat each other with civility?
