Photograph of a young alligator resting on a stump in the Louisiana bayou, near Slidell.
Gator rests on stump.
 but my mind cannot rest.
  it's not "gator"
 and "stump" in the same place,
 but in the same sentence.

A stump in the forest
   is like a gap in a
   wedding party photo
   where they photoshopped
   out a renegade relative,
      but forgot to erase
      the person's loafers.
