“MAIN STREET MYSTERY”

POET UNDER WATER!!!!! ANYBODY HAVE A SPARE SNORKEL????

By the Mighty Mumford

The deluge heavy in sheets,

Submerged many town streets…

To each deep puddle

The car struggled,

Lunging forward in eaters deep!

–

Rarely came through in the rain,

This gully-washer was insane…

Had no history

On where ponds would be,

Cruising along Douglas Main.

–

Deep waters came up as spray,

From vehicles headed my way…

Talk about splash—

By my own I was lashed,

No other cars near to blame!

–

I’m so glad the car didn’t stall,

I’d have floated away, that’s all…

Like that VW ad.

The flooding was bad,

But in summer–no ice at all!

–

Running downtown was a wash,

Submerging by a giant wave splash…

Periscope depth

We could have crept,

But made it with certain panache.
