Salutations

O generation of the thoroughly smug
       and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth
       and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake
       and do not even own clothing.

This is Just To Say

I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold

Because I enjoy non-partisan (or at least equal opportunity) humor...
