A garden tail

warning to the deer

The night was dark and full of deer. They ate azaleas, oh dear, tomatoes, hostas, chives and thyme; then they were running out of time and all that's left was marigolds and so they shat all over folds of an already brown tarp. Yes, deer are evil, mean and sharp, but they were chased away by crows that flew in perfect even rows and defecated one by one until their shit became the sun. The day is young and full of hope - we'll buy a rifle and a scope and google venison and steaks; for now, though, it's spades and rakes and rhododendrons in the mud. I warn you, deer: I'm out for blood.
