It’s quiet at the beginning but beneath there’s a stir.

The tongues will soon be wagging like my dog that is a cur.

There’ll be growling, and some barking, a posture meant as mean.

Some stare downs, some avoidance and all glances in between.

But for now all is quiet, so enjoy it while you can.

I’m almost out of bed my friend and I’m working on a plan.
