From weedy plants by its banks
Mix with faint goats’ bleats and stinks
From the home-brewed petting zoo
(Also bunnies and shelties!)
Just up the road. Laughable
Place and season for world’s end,
It might seem, but the zoo’s owners
Have a well-stocked shelf basement
And a gun locker and safe,
And the nearest movie house
Is showing The Civil War,
Ever ready for whatever
But whatever will have occurred.
