Summer programs
days of fun
getting paid to stand around
in this hot field.
Kids go in
and then go out
and then they go in again.
Usually screaming.
(They’re always screaming.)
This is probably a gold mine,
I’m sure there’s so much that I could do with
this blessed premise.
But I have a splitting headache
and I just saw a stray dog chase a kid
that was holding a half eaten pizza
and I think my job description says
that I have to go deal with that.
