NEIGHBOR AND DAUGHTER
CLEAN UP BACKYARD
Right Side:
How unpredictable are
the waves of life.
I'm giving attention to
its beauty, to responsibility,
thin room.
A tree falls. Laws broken.
WAR.
Or not war.
But justice.
Like the t-shirts say.
Underestimate me.
Let's have some fun.
or
That'll be fun. - Rights
