Two small houses at Riverside Rd
One for renovation & parents sleeping
We (brothers) occupy the second.
Between them … the old outhouse.
Wary about night visits
Wildlife is out
Creeping, crawling, slithering, playing
Snakes, spiders, lizards (nearly dinosaurs) …
Frogs!!
For Steve, rampant ranidaphobic,
A croaker in the crapper
Sheer terror!
