Style trends of a modern squirrel

White socked squirrel

Did you dress in the dark this morning

Grab three brown socks and one white

Doesn’t your mother check you

Before you leave the hutch?

Chewing on a nut

You sit on the fence rail

Stare back in studied nonchalance

Is this a fashion statement,

A rebellion or do you even care?

I would find it quite endearing

If you’d paint your nails

All the female squirrels would dig it

It might even get you laid

Or is that not your game?
