Uninvited

Uninvited

“A guest and a fish, after three days,
are poison.”--Proverb.

Groutt
is a grouch
who lives under
my porch.

Judging 
from the smell
that wafts up
from his den,

he lives on fish,
earwigs & earthworms.

I never have 
actually seen him;
he may be a troll

or possibly that dwarf
mini-bus driver that
disappeared last summer.

I decided to
just leave him
alone.

    Yes, and never use the front door - that is one scary face.

    Wise move, I'd say--a troll is not to be trusted--a very Halloweenish poem, and lost of fun.
