Unmending walls
I was out on a winter's morn
Picking up toppled rocks
and mending wall .
By perchance my neighbor he was due .
But he was taking down the rocks and hauling them off until his face turned blue
"What gives ?" , I querried of him .
"I've been accused that my mind is walled in ! I'm out here to disprove all of them ."
"I think that was a literal figure of speech . You've over reacted and broken breech !"
He paused to wipe the sweat
I thought surely now he would realize yet .
But he continued to dismantle the wall .
If he was playing poker he would be raising the bet after he made the last call .
Dedicated to MAGA voters
