QUIVER

QUIVER

Johnny Brown set a trap for a rabbit and he went to bed
In the morning he found Mr. Wiggle almost dead
Johnny held his knife to Wiggle’s throat
Mr. Wiggles was a quivering. Mr. Wiggles was a quakinh
Mr. Wiggles heart was breaking and Johnny said
“Stop your quivering will ya or I’m gonna have to kill ya.”
“Johnny, come in for breakfast.”
There are roads we travel. They turn and we don’t notice
Thus our lives unravel. The evening news will quote us.

Sgt. Brown led his dog from the kennel and he closed the gate
Met his friends down at the compound. A job that couldn’t wait
Johnny held his dog at Mommer’s throat.
Mommer was a quivering. Mommer was a quaking
Mommer’s heart was breaking. Johnny said
“Stop your quivering will ya and I might not have to kill ya.”
“Sgt. come get your laundry.’
There are roads we travel. They turn and we don’t notice
Thus our lives unravel. The evening news will quote us.

Captain Brown flew home late in August. Took a taxi to his house
Unlocked the door, set his bag in the sofa quiet as a mouse
Wondered at the sounds that he could hear
Johnny Brown started quivering. Johnny Brown started quaking
Johnny brown’s heart was breaking. Johnny’s wife walked out
of the bedroom tying her white robe at the waist.
She put her finger under Johnny’s chin. She lifted his face up.
She looked him in the eye and said,
“If you don’t stop quivering, I’m going to have to leave you.”
“Children com hug your daddy!”
