Frigid Night in Bloomfield

As best they can, they try -
do spooky voices, make scary faces
what elders do to pacify a hungry infant
on what planet has this voyager landed?
Cartoon is it, or psychiatric observation?

Little Bright Eyes has had enough!
It's mother's milk or face high decibels,
you tired veterans of past disasters

Just in time returns the "Nipple,"
the gentle ways of blessed woman
who mitigates the pending tantrum,
And grandpa and sidekick glance at each other
The kid was tough, but we had him conned
