Values Have Rapidly Descended Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I am not one who will debate,
What rakes or other equipment to be used...
When the cleaning up of backyards,
Should be a priority for everyone.

Too long has this oversight of blight,
Been in discussion and magnified...
To have been reduced and not in sight.

If some choose to use this as an argument,
For the purposes to see me as incompetent...
Or my leadership defeated.
Guess what?

You are the ones who have to face your neighbors.
To explain why their property values,
Have rapidly descended.
Not me!

I've already grown too tired,
Of pointing out your ignorance.
And the moment I was hired...
Time you wasted to test my tolerance for fools!

Well...
I've done my best to protect and prevent
Others who no longer guess...
If you are fools or just blinded idiots.

Doing things repeatedly,
Regardless of how impeccably one dresses...
Does not disguise one's stupidity.
And as I stated...
I am not one who will debate,
What rakes or other equipment to be used...
When the cleaning up of backyards,
Should be a priority for everyone.
