Smart alecky tourists
All crack the same tired jokes
A thousand times a day.
And we are no saints.
Sometimes when the heat
Is elevated
And the humidity
Takes your breath
We forget to laugh.
One ******* on sunday
Asked If there would be
An indian attack
And I just looked at him.
Too stupid to give up
He asked if I would attack
Because I look like an Indian.
I smiled
As if to say bless your heart
And told him honestly
"Not usually on Sunday."
Knife and tomahawk
Are never far away
Though
Did you know they didn't have air conditioning or electric lights in the 18th century? Yeah, me too.
