White Trash Lament

By Cindy Puzak

____________________

 

I live in a trailer park

Full of God-fearin' folks

And rottweilers.

And I don't know who's scarier--

Them dogs,

Them neighbors,

Or Jesus.

Cindy Puzak does not write poetry from her own perspective. The fact that she lives in a trailer park and is terrified of Jesus is purely coincidental.
