Waiting for the Other Boot to Drop - quatrain

Waiting for the Other Boot to Drop

 

And it’s not even a good and honest boot

But the steel-tapped heel and studded sole

Of anger, hatred, and existential despair

One that takes time to pause and stomp the flowers


(The village grouch; you know him well)
