After what I thought a vanilla
comment regarding how flavorful
property tax has become of late,
the bailiff followed me out
at my early departure muttering
he’d like a word. Outside
the courthouse he conferred
beneath his breath his encouragement
that I consider a run for
the District One Commission Seat,
how Judy O’neal down at the station
could get my message out on the news,
which would be neat and all to do
if I had a message other than
an invitation to sit with me
on the porch as we try to decipher
the morse code the fireflies flash
over the field, that missive
sure to make clear what it is
we're paying toward just by being here.
