He honestly
should not have guessed
About the
history of his guest,
Who really
was a noxious pest.
He
speculated that the guy,
Who dressed
just like a butterfly,
Was leaking
most of his supply
Of brains.
He guessed—and right out loud!—
This guest was not too well endowed,
And that, of
course, is not allowed
At Motel 6.
He’d just been hired—
Possessing
all that was required—
And now, Day
One, he’d just been fired.
“Oh, well,”
he thought, “I’ll be all right—
I’ve learned
to keep my mouth shut tight.”
And off he
walked into the night.
