【庭院之王】【King of the Yard 】
【King of the Yard 】
文/天玉之
I have the brain and power to
Trap Japanese beetles
Kill rabbits with BB guns
Net berries to keep from birds, so that
I can grow irises, lilies, and roses
I drive to the trap of my own
Nine to five, 360 days
Pay taxes and dues
Adapt to the systems, institutions of
Job, marriage, children, so that
My next generation has the money
To buy a big house with
Japanese beetles, rabbits, and birds
To grow irises, lilies, and roses
They say
I am the King of the Yard
Am I?
