“The Best Friend”

Sixty-six gifts for you alone
on that special day of giving
General Tso and ’za for brekky
at 12 years makes 12 stone
No books and no school
(save for the $4K Pre-K)
Outdoor Lurgy in the sea and air
plastic castle hath pleasant seats
Telescreen in every room
assures mental rot as well
The gift of shirinugui
shows he cares that much
Migliore amico isn’t raising a man
but conditioning human veal
Crate-training his own
nursemaid for tomorrow
