Bitter
David Cicero I never knew why, We needed a garden inside the house. I just knew it needed to be clean. If it wasn’t, It had to be, Even at three in the morning. I remember when our dog, Guirdy, A Rottweiler, Almost killed my step-mother. I guess she had enough of her too. Every night was an event. A tablecloth, and place settings, “Sit up straight!”, she’d say digging her finger into my back. “It’s an acquired taste.” Yeah, no kidding. |
