Pool boy

Our morning sail was cancelled When we discovered a human stool left floating

In the kiddies’ boating Pool

Our curiosity grew keener When after a little bother The police came over


to see

And announced at the scene a Further bit of evidence Found just behind a fence

A bargain bucket, a boat, and a school boy Eating a

KFC


The boy protested While he was arrested But the police persisted For in the boat

They did note

A nose, a thumb, and a tiny sliver of throat Such that there was no doubt

The boy, the lout Consumed

The person that made the stool On his way to school.
