An ode to the Sandpoint dump

It used to be such fun

to go to the dump

but now it's just a

royal pain in the rump.

Guards meet you at a stop sign

where you turn around and back

up between the lines.

Before, there was a fun mall

to go through but now it's gone

and it isn't any fun at all.

They go by rules

that are followed

to the letter,

but folks, I really like

the old dump better.
