JuJoJan 26 Eavesdropper

Sitting enjoying a jalapeño popper

The games on the tv, no ads stoppers

Heard a yell so interesting

Picked up my beer, from where it was resting

Sat up

Abrupt

Almost choked on my popper

And then I became what I hate, an eavesdropper.

I turned down the tv

Rose up from my chair

Saw my glass just sitting there

I downed its beer right quick

Put the empty wet glass up to the thick

Partition and hoped I’d hear something wild

Instead it was yelling at the cat, so quite mild

I learned my lesson, don’t be so rude

Mind your own business, ignore any feuds.
