When Jason Lee
Was a graduate student
At the University of Washington

He fell in love
With the squirrels
Dancing across the campus

He even started feeding
The squirrels
Much to the amusement
Of his classmate

Who commented,

“I don’t understand
Why do you like the squirrels
So much.
To me, squirrels are just rodents –
Tree rats with a good PR agent.”

Sam smiled.
And continued
Feeding the squirrels.
