NaPoWriMo, Day 25

Today's NaPoWriMo prompt is to write a poem in the form of a warning label about yourself.

My Warning Label

Do not take to a game,
base-, foot-, or any kind of ball.
Do not take to any sort
of sporting event at all.

Do not try to convert
to your religion
or splash with holy water,
not even a smidgen.

Do not take out in sunshine
or extreme heat.
Do not feed zucchini
or under-cooked meat.

Do not take hunting, fishing
or on camping trips.
Do not feed any sweet
potato flavored chips.

Do not bother, annoy,
or try to lead astray.
Keep a safe distance
or better yet, go away. - Jeff Barnes
