a letter


Dear Mr. Newman,

Why do you hate leaves?

It is 7:30 am and I am listening to a sound from Hell.
I must be one of the damned because of the
screams that wake me each morning.
Screeching, monotone wails of mankind's making,
one note, fill my life with a din of torment.
You, Mr. Newman, with your mask, your overalls,
your strap around your back, are sending me
to a rage that has no end until you
TURN OFF THAT FRIGGIN' LEAF BLOWER!

What is one leaf in the wholeness of human tragedy?

As the Beatles sing, "Let it Be," I beg you to enjoy
what innocently falls upon this unhallowed ground of
yours. Just enjoy nature. It happens. Its God's will.

Please, as Waylon sings, "Lets get back to the basics of Life,"
use a

RAKE!

Now that I have written my feelings on paper,
I WON'T HAVE TO SHOVE THAT THING UP...

never mind.

Sincerely Your Crazed Tenant,

Kathy Lockhart

Dear Kathy,

I was hoping to get some gossip about PAUL Newman but I know what you mean, some people manicure their gardens too much! Gardens should grow their hair long and let it all hang out!

I know, let's form the Gardens Need Our Modest Embrace movement, or GNOME for short. By way of digression, do they have dress down days in nudist camps?

Well done, dear friend,

Cheers, Chris

Looks like you are in the front seat beside me, lashing out at people you'd give anything to be rid of. But there is that little something that holds us back... like the little fact that you're talking about your landlord. Way to go Kathy, unleash the rage on paper!!!
Thanks for the laugh, maybe my love-write will come out now that you've put out some of my sarcasm for me!!!
