The Jug Substance Incident

Baboon Rising


Driving on a busy street, 
No one knows nor will see
What's become a tragedy, 
The aftermath revealed to me
It's a substance split from a jug, 
On route 42's busy hub
It's red in color with no suds,
Almost like a jello brand rug
It's left to lie on the road, 
It should be dumped in a commode
And as I drive my car by, 
I just ask my self oh why
And still the questions remain, 
How did this plastic jug get slain
If it were alive would it feel pain, 
A mystery no one can explain
On that Sunday afternoon, 
As I drove home all too soon
Did others see what did loom
the perpetrator is the goon
