On their third day out from the
condo in Phoenix
to their home along the shores of Lake Michigan,
he considered the boredom to fix,
so he decided to entertain his wife
with old skits
from Saturday Night Live.
He chose a Bill Murray skit
where Bill played a night club, crooner twit.
He launched into song
imitating Bill’s vowels
that lasted so languorously long,
but the howls
of his dog and the growls
of his wife
helped him decide
to keep quiet and
head to bed for the night.
