MISSING ALREADY<br />
Carol Korhonen<br />
Those under 21s living at my house<br />
(there are three of them)<br />
have determined and decreed<br />
the proper place for damp towels is<br />
on the bathroom or their bedroom floor<br />
wadded strategically to insure<br />
maximum mildew growth.<br />
Those under 21s living at my house<br />
(there are three of them)<br />
all go to school close by.<br />
The two girls go to U of A<br />
four blocks away, but they drive<br />
or are chauffeured by me.<br />
The 14-year-old boy, a high school freshman,<br />
always needs a ride.<br />
Those under 21s living at my house<br />
(there are three of them)<br />
all dearly love our two big dogs<br />
who shed black and white fur<br />
in copious amounts,<br />
but they never walk the dogs<br />
and never bathe them, or<br />
(god forbid)<br />
clean up the dog run.<br />
