Kickass, the doorstop dog, joins the keeper and Phyllis in offering the following:
THE MISSING HOUR
Goodbye, Hour,
So sour, so dour.
Take your lies and git!
We’re tired of your —t!
You promised wealth
And great good health.
You gave us stupidity
And boastful infidelity.
You’re an hour of bad time,
Full of lies and outright crime.
Go! Hour, Disappear from sight.
‘Til April when we see the light
Telling us as a timely tool,
You’re still our cursed April Fool!
