Ben, you will understand
Wisp, you might not like it.

Oh happy squirrels
Prancing around my neighborhood
Tearing up lawns
eating old garbage
How can there be so many of you?
You tease my dog
with your fluffy tails
He only wishes he had such fluff,
And to tear you, limb from limb
And come inside
To lick my face
And spread the smell of his recent kill
So cute and perky
You entertain old women
Too bad, so sad
Your cuteness cannot
Stop the pellet
Speeding from my bb gun

I love it. Except . . . wouldn't it be a pellet gun if it was shooting pellets? Obviously, it could be a hybrid, but then it would be whatever type of ammunition you are shooting.

:O There's a large difference between a squirrel and Demon Squirrel.

For art's sake, you write well! Now I'm going to cry again.

Love the last three lines; I don't know why, because I love squirrels, they are adorable. How can you kill Rocky, the flying (or climbing) squirrel? (sob).

Still, I like the part about the dog-you got that right!

Aah, it was a female that fell to her death on the cold sidewalk off my back porch. It could not have been Rocky!

yup. I've seen it. It is wicked. you havent seen mine though. this is a problem. (it only shoots pellets, but it shoots them at around 1000 to 1200 fps) Ever seen a pellet rifle with a 3x9 scope? i have. its mine.
