Allgood, Alabama | Minolta Maxxum 7000 | Kodak Ektar 100

Feline or humane,
it’s all the same —
go back the way you came.

“Puuuurty sure this ain’t your land meow, git yer paws outta here!

A glare and a hiss,
trust me I persist —
get out my yard or I’ll spray you with piss.

That is unless you brought some fish…
give it here and we can coexist,
my favorite dish I can’t resist.

No? Aw hell Cletus grab yer gun,
this fella ain’t any fun.
Let’s just see how fast he can run.”

Lesson learned: in Alabama,
it’s wise to carry fish at every turn —
unless you yearn to end up in an urn.
