Limerick Six
The Revolutionary One
We’ve all been such lovely consumers,
But I know that you might have heard rumours
That we’re planning a coup.
Well, that just isn’t true.
(Yes, it is. Don’t you dare tell the boomers.)
◼︎
This poem is tongue-in-cheek. There are plenty of clever and wonderful boomers — parents and grandparents, builders and teachers, writers and thinkers. Make sure you deride bad ideas, not the elderly.
But don't put up with any crap, either.

BARE HUNTER
CHAPTER 15 I pulled up in front of Sandy’s a little early, so I texted Becca again and left a message for Sharon, hoping she had a good day and I’d see her tomorrow. Two cars pulled into Sandy’s driveway. I don’t know why I was surprised to see another man with her. We’d been apart for two years and I certainly didn’t waste any time getting back on the horse.
