Sonnet to Gophers

Sonnet To Gophers

Shall you ever make your appearance?
I wish to gaze upon your furry face,
I’m offended that gopher statues at the store on clearance,
But if you scare me, I’ll use my mace.

But I think of you all day,
And every day I do,
It’s hard to keep my thoughts at bay,
Yet if you assault me I’ll sue.

But because you’re gone, I just listen to The Who,
Although I much prefer Queen,
The thought of you makes the thought of music shoo,
Which, frankly, is kinda mean.
