Chipmunks
I overheard two chipmunks arguing today. A beautiful row of squeeking. It filled the whole Quad. I wondered what they were arguing about. Maybe Mr. Chipmunk forgot to close the door to the nut storehouse. I really want to visit that nut storehouse. I picture piles and piles of nuts like dunes in the desert. I'd like to dive in, wearing a striped one-piece bathing suit. I wonder if there are different kinds of nuts, or are they all acorns? Do they have different soups and recipes? Do they cut them in half using sharp nails? Or do they just nibble on them all winter long? Maybe that was the argument. Maybe they were sick of chewing on the same thing, without even salt to spice it up. Maybe they really wish they were part of a rock band. I mean, don't we all?
