On the corner
of Common and Place
sits the mean and crabby Mrs. Case,
who growls at the boring,
barks at the mundane
and bites the heads off
the dull and the plain –
kids say she’s crazy
but she’s perfectly sane,
she just wants something different
not more of the same.
No sir, that’s not welcomed,
not around her space,
not on the corner
of Common and Place.
