Ode to Leaf-Blowers and Ode to Self-Esteem Put in a Blender

You –

Make a lot of noise

You –

Suspect the recipient of your mail will be disappointed

You –

Believe your presence causes others' embarrassment

You –

Blow leaves around

You –

Blow leaves around

You –

Blow leaves into garbage bags so the lawn and pavement may be tidy

You –

Make a lot of noise and disrupt my sleep

You –

Prevent me from being with people whose company I might enjoy

You –

Blow leaves into garbage bags so the lawn and pavement may be tidy, and when the lawn is dry, the house-owner purchases mulch when nature provided the mulch with those fallen leaves

You –

Disrupt my sleep

You –

Restrict

You –

Blow leaves around, and make a lot of noise
