Froggy in the Pool Skimmer
And they found a frog in the pool skimmer.
They threw it as hard as they could against the wooden fence.
It's lifeless body fell to the ground and they laughed.
And I was ashamed to be human.

Did you write this based on personal experience? That's awful!
Yea, it's a random memory that popped into my head last night. I was in Cub Scouts and we were having a pool party at Chris Sayles's house.
*goes slackjawed*
I want to hurt those people. I love froggies.
I am not sure I find that behavior ashaming, especially where the frog was dead. It, in essence, was not a frog, but a collection of carbon hydrogen and oxygen awaiting reassimilation into the living biomass. I think the laughter generated by the corpse-fence collision was probably more valuable than allowing the pool filter to become clogged.
Except the frog was alive....up until the instant it hit the wall.
One could argue that it was still only a mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen....but all systems were go until collision with the wall.
gotcha. by the way, all systems were go is a great way to describe being alive.
