forcing me into a barbeque

the neighbors
are complaining about my chickens
in the back yard,
the clucking, not to mention
the mooing
of my cow.
and the snorting of my pig
and her
little baby piglets.
you can't have a barnyard
in this neighborhood,
they tell me.
the board comes around
and threatens me
with fines
and eviction.
i have no choice but to 
have a barbeque next week,
but the complaining neighbors
will not be invited.
