A “nothingburger,” forgotten backwater of a town, “fly over town” Eastern Oregon town that had seen better days. He was often very angry, Lots of things pissed him off. He did not like Christmas “Bah humbug “, he said. He looked at the giant clock - 7 pm. Then he heard them. People gathering around To sing Christmas carols. He hated the custom Of everyone singing Christmas carols. While walking, in the shifting snow. He went outside with his gun Shot it in the air. Scared them off, And went inside, and had another lonely drink. His neighbor, the vivacious Maria Lee, His only friend in the world, Came over the next day. “Sam, Why are you so mean To everyone?” Sam had no answer Just smiled at her, And offered her coffee Part of his morning routine. The only reason not to die. He left her two million dollars in his will. inspired by the movie Otto Include the following words. very angry giant clock sifting snow everyone singing |
