I forgot the bug spray <br />So mosquitoes keep attacking me <br />Some guy brought a blender for Happy Hour <br />And some people even bring their TVs <br /> <br />So mosquitoes keep attacking me <br />There are too many man-made noises <br />And some people even bring their TVs <br />Which I don’t understand. <br /> <br />There are too many man-made noises. <br />The nature walk is closed <br />Which I don’t understand <br />Even though it’s not my favorite activity <br />. <br />The nature walk is closed <br />So I commune with the panhandling squirrels <br />Even though it’s not my favorite activity. <br />We pitched the tent next to our beloved car <br /> <br />So I commune with the panhandling squirrels <br />Someone’s bug zapper keeps me up all night <br />We pitched the tent next to our beloved car <br />Which makes camping sort of surreal. <br /> <br />Someone’s bug zapper keeps me up all night <br />That guy with the blender never went to sleep <br />Which makes camping sort of surreal. <br />The bathrooms are the real adventure.<br /><br />Michael Philips<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pantoum-for-a-camping-trip/
